"In an era of inauthenticity Dowrick is a godsend. Her gift is the
ability to write in a manner that genuinely enriches and changes
lives. "Choosing Happiness" is a glorious book - both in intent and
in scope. In many ways it is the only book you need ever buy on
happiness. Not only is it a wise and enjoyable read it is also an
invaluable reference book to return to again and again."
