Stumbling Upon Happiness – Daniel Gilbert
This book explores what makes us happy, and why we so poorly predict what will make us happy in the future. Gilbert brings some science to our often misguided attempts to plan and estimate what we need, and what the experience will be like, based on our experiences of today. It is an entertaining read and gets us rethinking the reasons we move through life the way we do, and gives us new insights into how the brain imagines the things it does, on a daily basis. Very thought provoking!
