Making Happy People by Paul Martin

How can a parent best guarantee their child's happiness?
Praise for Paul Martin's Counting Sheep: 'Energetic and immensely readable, this is as good a popular science book as I have read! written with such vivacity and infectious enthusiasm that by the end of this book you'll be racing for your bed to try out a few sleepy experiments for yourself' Evening Standard 'A masterpiece of efficiently and entertainingly delivered information, bracingly clear and thoroughly researched.' New Statesman 'A thoroughly engaging and passionate book! littered with fascinating experiments, titillating examples and offbeat asides.' Scotland on Sunday

Paul Martin was educated at Cambridge University, where he read Natural Sciences and took a PhD in behavioural biology, and at Stanford University, California, where he was Harkness Fellow in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Sciences. He lectured and researched in behavioural biology at Cambridge University, and was a Fellow of Wolfson College, before leaving academia to pursue other interests including science writing. His previous books include The Sickening Mind and Counting Sheep.
