This is not a book of solutions on finding happiness. More of a very enjoyable scientific explanation of how we feel at each moment. The way our brain works and how sometimes we are deceived. The author engages the reader in a fascinating study of our emotions and its effects on our decisions.

Quote from the book:

“There is no simple formula for finding happiness. But if our great big brains do not allow us to go surefootedly into our futures, they at least allow us to understand what makes us stumble.”
