About this listen

Most people now realise that economic growth, however desirable, will not solve all our problems. Instead, we need a philosophy and a science which encompasses a much fuller range of human need and experience.

This book argues that the goal for a society must be the greatest possible all round happiness and shows how each of us can become more effective creators of happiness, both as citizens and in our own organisations.

Written with Richard Layard's characteristic clarity, it provides hard evidence that increasing happiness is the right aim and that it can be achieved. Its language is simple, its evidence impressive, its effect inspiring.

Richard Layard is founder and former director of the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics. He is the author of the groundbreaking Happiness: Lessons from a New Science, which has been published in 19 languages, and (with David Clark) Thrive: The Power of Psychological Therapies. He is co-editor of the annual World Happiness Report and has been instrumental in the development of improving access to psychological therapies in the UK.
