How can we make it easier to be happy? Using the latest cutting-edge research, Professor Paul Dolan reveals that wellbeing isn't about how we think - it's about what we do. By making deliberate choices that bring us both pleasure and meaning, we can redesign our lives for maximum happiness - without thinking too hard about it. 'Bold and original . . . what I wish for my grandchildren- a life that is rich in activities both pleasurable and meaningful.'

Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking Fast and Slow 'Outstanding, cutting-edge, and profound. If you're going to read one book on happiness, this is the one.' Nassim Nicholas Taleb 'Illuminating, persuasive . . . a powerful reminder to focus on maximising what actually delivers joy.' Oliver Burkeman, Guardian 'The book that will make you quit your job.' Sophie McBain, New Statesman
