When you ask people about their most cherished values in life, “happiness” is always at the top of the list. But surprisingly few people claim real happiness. We seem to be completely satisfied with nothing, and indeed, there is little correlation between the circumstances of people’s lives and how happy they are.
In this book, lecturer, theologian, philosopher, and Los Angeles radio personality Dennis Prager ruminates on what makes happiness such a serious problem to solve. He discusses the difference between happiness and success and between happiness and fun and how to adjust our expectations of life. Prager maintains that insatiable human nature makes lasting happiness profoundly difficult to achieve but that nevertheless, it can be a reality. When happiness is treated with the same level of seriousness that people bring to life’s other tasks, it becomes immediately more tangible and thus achievable.

“Astonishing…Anyone who feels unhappy more than he would like will benefit from reading this book.”
(Wall Street Journal)“Prager’s latest book challenges readers to realize that they—not any outside force—are the greatest obstacle to happiness.”
(Los Angeles Times)“[A] unique blend of self-help and moral philosophy…if you’re willing to put some thought into achieving a happier outlook, you will find plenty to mull over in Happiness Is a Serious Problem.”
(Amazon.com Review)“Prager has developed a surprising following in today’s soundbite media culture. Supporters praise his earnest tone, nonideological opinions, and insistence that his audience think deeply about serious issues…A fine choice for all public libraries where self-help books are popular.”
(Library Journal)
