'Smart, engaging and funny. It will make you question everything you think you know about what you want' Caroline Criado Perez, author of Invisible Women

Paul Dolan, the bestselling author of Happiness by Design, shows us how to escape the myth of perfection and find our own route to happiness.

Be ambitious; find everlasting love; look after your health ... There are countless stories about how we ought to live our lives. These narratives can make our lives easier, and they might sometimes make us happier too. But they can also trap us and those around us.

In Happy Ever After, bestselling happiness expert Professor Paul Dolan draws on a variety of studies ranging over wellbeing, inequality and discrimination to bust the common myths about our sources of happiness. He shows that there can be many unexpected paths to lasting fulfilment. Some of these might involve not going into higher education, choosing not to marry, rewarding acts rooted in self-interest and caring a little less about living forever.

By freeing ourselves from the myth of the perfect life, we might each find a life worth living.

Definitely NOT the COLOR that’s advertised but not bad
I got this for my son for him to have his 1st official “dressy” coat for certain occasions. It will do for the price, but as I said in the description, it’s definitely not the color that’s shown in the advertisement. Its also not taken in like the picture. But not bad. It’s more of a camel color than a khaki like the advertisement. My son is 5’9 and has a slim build, I bought a L because he’s tall and this fits fine to be honest. I want him to be able to grow into it next year as well. If you have long arms you may wanna size up.

Nothing i wrote my comments above a statement above
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy Blue
This item was not good quality, so I decided to not not use. It came pretty much wrinkled and folded in some package. And once again, it was not good quality was all wrinkled up you had to Send it to the cleaners to straighten it out and it didn't fit very well. It just wasn't there very good quality, kind of heavy, so so\n I'm not sure if I'll return it or just donate it to the local church. Thank you art cruz

Fantastic product... fantastic fit !
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
First off, China got this product from their country to ours, then to my hometown.... faster than my own post office could get it across town after much bickering. So... thank you to the Chinese. Complaints about America being better... then start doing better. Secondly the coat was far superior than I even suspected. It fit well and I cannot wait until cooler weather to break it out ! Again... thank you China ! Highly recommend this product.
