Description

Arthur C. Brooks breaks down the science of happiness, teaching why happiness isn’t a feeling but a skill built from enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning. Using neuroscience, psychology, and practical wisdom, he shows how to convert pleasure into true enjoyment and how to steer emotions — rather than be steered by them — for a happier, more intentional life.
