Description
As a Professor of Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics, Paul Dolan conducts original research into the measurement of happiness and its causes and consequences, including the effects of our behaviour. Here he creates a new outlook on the pursuit of happiness - it's not just how you feel, it's how you act. Happiness by Design shows that being happier requires us to actively re-design our immediate environment. Enough has been written on how to think happy. Happiness by Design is about how to behave happy and how to incorporate the most recent research findings into our everyday lives.
Advance Praise
"Paul Dolan is a star among students of well-being. He brings to this field a rich experience in the economics of health and the measurement of health outcomes, an excellent sense for policy-oriented research, a deft psychological approach and an unusual ability to collect interesting data quickly and efficiently. He has earned the respect and admiration of colleagues in several disciplines and on both sides of the Atlantic" Daniel Kahneman, Nobel Laureate
