Über diesen Titel
Brought to you by Penguin.
What is the key to a good life?
It is a question that preoccupies us all and one that the longest and most successful study of happiness ever conducted strives to answer. In this groundbreaking audiobook, directors of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, Robert Waldinger and Marc Schulz, bring together over 80 years of research to reveal the true components of a happy, fulfilled life.
The Good Life makes clear that what truly makes a rich and happy life is not synonymous with financial success and achievement, but is rather the result of our relationships. This remarkable work brings together scientific precision, traditional wisdom, incredible real-life stories and actionable insights to prove once and for all that our own wellbeing and ability to flourish is absolutely within our control.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

"An outstanding book. It combines the longest and richest study of human lives anywhere with two remarkable authors of extraordinary breadth." (Sir Richard Layard, Professor of Economics, LSE and author of Can We Be Happier?)
"This is the book we’ve been waiting for. With grace, humor, and scientific rigor, The Good Life challenges our most stubborn assumptions, and proves that the kind of thriving, happy life we all hope for may have been hiding in plain sight all along. It couldn’t have come at a better time." (Guy Raz)
"In the time of 'social distancing' and a 'loneliness epidemic' understanding the importance of what makes a good life is paramount now more than ever. Both informative and practical, this book is a must read." (Julianne Holt-Lunstad, Fellow of the Society of Experimental Social Psychology)

An American approach to happiness
A very American book - on the one hand, full of uplifting and helpful messages about the importance of relationships; on the other hand completely ignoring all social influences on happiness such as poverty, discrimination, inequality. In fact, the book stresses again and again how these are utterly unimportant for your happiness if you just manage to make friends (and influence people, one is tempted to add) - which of course is all up to you to do, since each and everyone has the same chance to find and make friends...
The overall impression is reinforced by one of tje two reading voices which stresses 'positive' words and phrases as if reading a bedtime story to a child, which makes it hard to ignore the inherent ideology.
