Stumbling on Happiness

Brief Summary

What if we don'te really understand how happiness functions? Daniel Gilbert's book "Stumbling on Happiness" demonstrates how our brains frequently generate inaccurate predictions about what will make us happy, which may seem absurd given that everyone seems to know what makes them happy. Gilbert uses data from neurology and psychology to explain why people frequently make choices that don't result in long-term happiness. He explains the intriguing science underlying our feelings and provides suggestions for how we can increase our chances of finding true fulfillment.
