A simple path to happiness doesn't exist. Rolf Dobelli, businessman and founder of the TED-style conference World Minds, has synthesized the leading thinkers and the latest science in happiness to find the best shortcuts to satisfaction in The Art of the Good Life.

The Art of the Good Life is a toolkit designed for practical living. Here you'll find "happiness hacks"-from guilt-free shunning of technology to gleefully paying your parking tickets-that are certain to optimize your happiness. A good life isn't guaranteed, but that doesn't mean we can't strive for it-and this book will give you a better chance at happiness.
