Beyond Happy: How to Rethink Happiness and Find Fulfilment, by Mark Fabian

There is more to life than the pursuit of happiness

Evolution has wired us to keep happiness just out of reach. Beyond Happy argues that rather than struggling to escape the treadmill, we should make it a place we want to be. Wellbeing is not solely an individual pursuit; it is something we cultivate together.
