Knowledge and wisdom from 100 professors of happiness from all over the world.

In this book 100 professional researchers from all over the world share for the first time what they know about happiness. No spiritual philosophy but evidence-based knowledge of recent experiments and life-long research. Set in a language that everybody understands. Grazing through more than 8000 studies in the World Database of Happiness (established by Professor Veenhoven, University of Rotterdam), we contacted the best researchers in positive psychology. We asked them to describe in some words (min 100, max 1000) what they have learned through their research on happiness and what specific advice they would give to people all over the world to improve their happiness. The final selection of the most relevant views contains 100 extraordinary extracts from specialists in more than forty countries, from China and Japan, to India, Australia, Africa, Europe and America.

The texts are illustrated with pictures from dozens of the best photographers in the world, selecting the most expressive and emotional photographs of universal happiness. Because this book not only wants to appeal to your mind, but also to your heart and to your senses.

"There are a lot of tools, procedures and ideas to help people
to become happier. And they have been proved to work ! We just need to make them accessible for everybody."
Dr. José de Jesus Garcia Vega, Mexico
