Do you want to be happy?

If so - read on. This book has all the answers.

In The Happy Brain, neuroscientist Dean Burnett delves deep into the inner workings of our minds to explore some fundamental questions about happiness. For starters: what does it actually mean to be happy? Where does it come from? And is there a secret to making it last forever?

In his research into these questions - and many more besides - Burnett unravels our complex internal lives to reveal the often surprising truth behind what makes us tick. From whether happiness really begins at home (spoiler alert: yes - sort of) to what love, sex, friendship, wealth, laughter and success actually do to our brains, this book offers a uniquely entertaining insight into what it means to be human.

Not really. Sorry. But it does have some very interesting questions, and at least the occasional answer.

Rezensionen
'The good news, according to Dean Burnett's fascinating new book, is that on the whole our brains want us to be happy. The bad news is that they often go about it in a rather clumsy way.' Daily Mail
'Pop psychology at its finest.' Stylist
