Stumbling on Happiness

Stumbling on Happiness by Daniel Gilbert is a fascinating and witty exploration of how our minds often misjudge what will make us happy. Harvard psychologist Gilbert reveals why we’re poor at predicting our future feelings — from love and money to daily annoyances. Using engaging research and real-life examples, he explains how imagination and memory shape our expectations, and why we often get happiness wrong. Insightful and entertaining, the book helps readers understand the psychology behind human satisfaction and how to make better choices for a happier life.
