Unstressable applies Mo Gawdat's brilliant engineering mind and Alice Law's psychology and stress-management expertise to the 'stress pandemic'. This follow up to bestselling Solve For Happy will show you that chronic stress is not an unavoidable part of modern life, but a predictable - and therefore preventable - response, often as much to do with negative thought patterns as external circumstances. Mo explains how he made it through the most acutely stressful times in his own life, and the book touches on the idea of post-traumatic growth.

Solve for Happy is a startlingly original book about creating and maintaining happiness, written by a top Google executive with an engineer's training and fondness for thoroughly analyzing a problem.

A lifelong learner, he attacked the problem as an engineer would, examining all the provable facts and scrupulously following logic.

Mo Gawdat befasst sich schon seit Jahren mit dem Thema Glück und was dieses ausmacht. Als Entwickler und Leiter in Googles Denkfabrik, Google (X), geht er das Problem eben wie ein solcher an. Er prüft alle Fakten und sucht die Logik dahinter. Nach unzähligen Stunden, Büchern und Interviews konnte er tatsächlich eine Gleichung für dauerhaftes Glücklichsein aufstellen. 13 Jahre später kam der härteste Test für Gawdats Glücksalgorithmus - sein Sohn starb völlig unerwartet mit 21 Jahren.

DAS BENUTZERHANDBUCH FÜR DAUERHAFTES GLÜCK. Für die einen ist es Gesundheit, für die anderen Wohlstand oder beruflicher Erfolg – Glück bedeutet für jeden etwas anderes. Meist bemerkt man sein Glück aber leider erst dann, wenn es sich bereits wieder zu verflüchtigen scheint.
