The Nature of Happiness | Book | Desmond Morris

The Nature of Happiness book is authored by Desmond Morris, an English author. It was published in 2004. Desmond Morris wrote every book some how revolving around the life of human, their psychology and ways to communicate and think. As a writer and Scholar he served the humanity by revealing the facts of human behaviors. 

  

Desmond's saying "One sure way to make me unhappy is to lecture me on how to make my life happier" depicts that this book is not like a traditional book that teaches the tactics to live happy by advising you some routine exercises to keep yourself happy. As matter of fact the book gives an exposure to the explanations of sources that causes real happiness. But it's best understanding may eventually result you happiness. 

According Desmond Morris The true nature of happiness is frequently misunderstood. It is often confused with contentment, satisfaction or peace of mind. The best way to explain the difference is to describe contentment as the mood when life is good, while happiness is the sensation we experience when life suddenly gets better. At the very moment when something wonderful happens to us, there is a surge of emotion, a sensation of intense pleasure, an explosion of sheer delight - and this is the moment when we are truly happy. Sadly, it does not last very long. Intense happiness is a transient, fleeting sensation. We may continue to feel good for quite a while, but the joyful elation is quickly lost. As one cynic put it: life is prolonged misery interrupted by brief moments of happiness.
