The How of Happy by Ariane Sherine
The quest for happiness is a journey filled with competing advice and very rarely any evidence. Public health consultant David Conrad selects 50 key research studies that have found what does and does not make people happy, and comedy writer Ariane Sherine explores whether these studies make sense in the real world.
