As a species, we've never had it so good. We're living longer and healthier lives than ever before; the sum of human knowledge and endless entertainment are only ever a few clicks away.

So why are we in the midst of a mental health crisis?

The Happiness Cure offers a radical new way to think about fulfilment. Blending neuroscientific research and empirical breakthroughs with stories of ordinary individuals, leading psychiatrist and viral TedX speaker Dr Anders Hansen reveals that by adopting an evolutionary take on life, we can re-set our perspective on happiness to find longer-term meaning and lasting contentment.

 
 

Review

Anders Hansen's work is the antidote to our modern-day struggles. - Dr Rangan Chatterjee

A brilliantly researched book that will transform how you think about happiness. - Thomas Erikson, author of Surrounded by Idiots

A fascinating exploration of the ways in which our ancient neurologic wiring is mismatched for the modern ecosystem. By understanding depression and anxiety through the lens of evolution, we can make sense of the growing despair in the world today and do something about it. This is a must read for anyone hoping to understand the human brain. - Dr. Anna Lembke, New York Times bestselling author of Dopamine Nation

By describing our minds as the products of evolution, Hansen shows invaluable new ways for understanding and living with our most important mental ups and downs. "The Happiness Cure" uses direct and accessible language to present the exciting promise of a scientifically informed psychiatry. - Richard Wrangham, author of The Goodness Paradox

Anders Hansen is our foremost and most accomplished public educator. With his crystal-clear, straightforward prose that never shies away from the difficult questions, he writes about evolution and the brain, and why many of us are left feeling so bad. Brilliant, I think. And very informative - David Lagercrantz
