By Jonathan HaidtHaidt compares the world's beliefs and philosophies searching for common themes. He compares the way to find a successful life with controlling our inner "elephant" by becoming the in-charge "rider". Wealth is less important to happiness than close friendships, quiet surroundings, and short commutes.
This book almost has too much to think about, since it covers childhood & parenting, positive psychology, and the author's own philosophical journey. However, taken in small chunks, it is an informative, interesting book.
