Stumbling on Happiness is a 2006 book by Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert. The book debuted at number one on The New York Times Non-Fiction Best Seller list and remained on the list for nineteen weeks.
In the book, Gilbert argues that the psychological immune system allows humans to delude themselves into thinking they will be happy even when they are not, and that this delusion is evolutionarily adaptive. Gilbert also discusses how memory, imagination, and anticipatory hedonism affect the ability to be happy.
Stumbling on Happiness is a great book that will help you understand why you’re not always happy, and how you can change that. The book is full of interesting stories and insights, and it’s easy to understand and follow. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about happiness.
