What produces a happy society and a happy life? Thanks to the new science of wellbeing, we can now answer this question using state-of-the-art empirical evidence. This transforms our ability to base our decisions on the outcomes that matter most, namely the wellbeing of us all including future generations. Written by two of the world's leading experts on the economics of wellbeing, this book shows how wellbeing can be measured, what causes it and how it can be improved. Its findings are profoundly relevant to all social sciences, including psychology, economics, politics, behavioural science and sociology. A field-defining text on a new science that aims to span the whole of human life, this will be an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate students, policy-makers and employers, who can apply its insights in their professional and private lives. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Cette fin de millénaire est marquée par la vitesse, le progrès et ses incessants changements, les nouvelles technologies, le pouvoir des médias, et les questions demeurent : comment réussir sa vie et qu'est-ce que le bonheur ? Non pas celui qui rend " assisté " mais celui qui engage à prendre des risques et à construire sa vie avec détermination. Dominique, 23 ans, producteur de films d'entreprise ; Clémence, 18 ans, lycéenne passionnée de philosophie ; et l'auteur, J. D., philosophe issu de divers milieux professionnels, abordent ces questions essentielles et actuelles. Aujourd'hui qu'attendre de la vie dans un monde touché par le chômage, la " crise " ? Comment voir ces nouveaux défis, la vie en société, l'insécurité, l'évolution du milieu ambiant ? Quelles en sont les conséquences sur la vie personnelle, le travail, l'amour, l'amitié, la solidarité ? Qu'est-ce qui est important ? Quels risques accepter de prendre ? Avec vivacité, loin des recettes toutes faites, ce livre reflète les entretiens que l'auteur a eus de nombreux jeunes en France et en Europe.
