If we have the best living conditions in history, why aren't we always happy? Why are almost 300 million people on the planet diagnosed with depression? Shouldn't we be satisfied and enjoy life?

Anders Hansen's short answer: because we are biological beings. For thousands of years, we had to survive, not rejoice.

But you will learn a more complete answer from this book. The author combines knowledge from evolution, neurobiology and psychiatric practice and explains why the brain functions this way and not otherwise, why we have feelings. Why, when we sleep poorly, sit a lot, look at other people's happiness on Instagram, the brain reacts in the style of "this world is dangerous", "my life is worthless", "I am not good or good enough".
