An economist's lessons on happiness
farewell dismal science! /[electronic resource] :by Richard A. Easterlin. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2021. - xvii, 179 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.
Introduction -- Part I: First Lessons -- Measuring Happiness -- Does Money Make People Happy? -- How Does Health Affect Happiness? -- Family Life and Happiness -- How Can I Increase My Happiness? -- Part II: Next Lessons -- Can Government Increase My Happiness: Transition Countries -- Can Government Increase My Happiness: Nordic Countries -- Happiness or GDP? -- Part III: Q & A -- Who Is Happier-Young or Old? Women or Men? -- More on Money and Happiness -- What About Democracy, Religion, Charity, Volunteering, Etc.? -- Who to Believe? Psychology or Economics? -- Critiquing the Paradox -- Part IV: History Lessons -- Dawn of the Happiness Revolution -- Dream on, Professor!.
Once called the "dismal science," economics now offers prescriptions for improving people's happiness. In this book Richard Easterlin, the "father of happiness economics," draws on a half-century of his own research and that conducted by fellow economists and psychologists to answer in plain language questions like: Can happiness be measured? Will more money make me happier? What about finding a partner? Getting married? Having a baby? More exercise? Does religion help? Who is happier-women or men, young or old, rich or poor? How does happiness change as we go through different stages of life? Public policy is also in the mix: Can the government increase people's happiness? Should the government increase their happiness? Which countries are the happiest and why? Does a country need to be rich to be happy? Does economic growth improve the human lot? Some of the answers are surprising (no, more money won't do the trick; neither will economic growth; babies are a mixed blessing!), but they are all based on reason and well-vetted evidence from the fields of economics and psychology. In closing, Easterlin traces the genesis of the ongoing "Happiness Revolution" and considers its implications for people's lives down the road.
