Product Description
Most people want more income. Yet as societies become richer, they do not become happier. We have sophisticated ways of measuring how happy people are. All the evidence shows that on an average, people have grown no happier. It is true of Britain, Japan, and other countries. This book shows that there is a paradox at the heart of our lives.
