Arthur Brooks offers a bold vision for happiness, unity, and social justice—a movement of the head and heart that is clear, well-reasoned, accessible, and free of vituperative politics.

Who are the happiest Americans? Surveys show that religious people think they are happier than secularists, and secularists think they are happier than religious people. Liberals believe they are happier than conservatives, and conservatives disagree. In fact, almost every group thinks it is happier than everyone else. In this provocative book, Arthur Brooks explodes the myths about happiness in America.

We all know we should give to charity, but who really does? In his controversial study of America’s giving habits, Arthur C. Brooks shatters stereotypes about charity in America-including the myth that the political Left is more compassionate than the Right.
