The audiobook edition of Happy, read by Derren Brown.

Everyone says they want to be happy. But that's much more easily said than done. What does being happy actually mean? And how do you even know when you feel it?

In Happy Derren Brown explores changing concepts of happiness - from the surprisingly modern wisdom of the Stoics and Epicureans in classical times right up until today, when the self-help industry has attempted to claim happiness as its own. He shows how many of self-help's suggested routes to happiness and success - such as positive thinking, self-belief and setting goals - can be disastrous to follow and, indeed, actually cause anxiety.

Happy aims to reclaim happiness and to enable us to appreciate the good things in life, in all their transient glory. By taking control of the stories we tell ourselves, by remembering that 'everything's fine' even when it might not feel that way, we can allow ourselves to flourish and to live more happily.

Opinie krytyków

Witty, useful and beautifully written . . . this book grapples expansively with the most profound questions any of us face
Brilliant. Really brilliant and just crammed with wisdom and insight. It will genuinely make a difference to me and the way I think about myself. I'm going to recommend it to everyone I know.
Brown tries to resurrect the original Stoic ambitions here: not just to live well but to die well, too. His book is thoughtful, insightful and ultimately, well, helpful.
Til now, we've known Derren Brown as a supreme illusionist and magician. Now he surprises us with a new and brilliant identity: as a philosopher. Not just any philosopher. Brown takes philosophy back to its truest task: that of helping us to live and die well. His book is deeply informative, moving, wise and full of love. It sets out to change lives - and it will. Derren has pulled off a properly implausible trick: that of making the deepest ideas relevant, humane and urgent.
In this wise and perceptive book Derren Brown has conjoined personal experience, profoundly sensible psychology and the magic of philosophy to produce a really excellent account of how to be happy - really, maturely, properly happy. This is a wonderfully educative - and enjoyable! - book, and should be on everyone's reading list, always.

I loved the book and it really helped me through a breakup. The key concepts were not new to me and yet, Derren choses his words so eloquently that something has clicked and I finally really understood them. So, to me it is a great book, very reflective and well researched

Very smart book and well written

This book had not a lot of new information but a different take on things. This to me means I’m on the right track :)

Ich habe schon viele Bücher über den Stoizismus und den Einsatz dieser Erkenntnisse im Alltag gelesen. "Happy" fasst das Ganze zusammen und ergänzt es mit interessanten Einblicken des Autors, die mir sehr helfen werden. Auch die Kapitel über den Tod haben mich nachdenken lassen waren sehr interessant. Klare Empfehlung!

Wonderful book, deeply thoughtful, witty and warm. Derren as the narrator comes across as charmingly self-deprecating and funny as he lays out a stoic-inspired roadmap to a more authentic, contented life. I found the chapter on death particularly useful. Can't recommend this enough.

Loved it!
