The scholars in this volume explore those weak points in the hope that identifying their causes may help us strengthen our own ideas and promote toleration in ways that can avoid those paradoxes. 606 $aReligious tolerance - History 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aReligious tolerance - History. 676 $a323.44209 700 $aLaursen$b John Christian$0281608 701 $aVillaverde$b Maria Jose$0869763 701 $aAbella?n$b Joaqui?n$0869764 701 $aIsrael$b Jonathan$f1946-$0258955 701 $aKrop$b Henri$0869765 701 $aSastre$b Gerardo Lo?pez$0869766 701 $aMasroori$b Cyrus$0869767 701 $aMinuti$b Rolando$0596492 701 $aRolda?n$b Concha$0869768 701 $aSimonutti$b Luisa$0260193 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910453059503321 996 $aParadoxes of Religious Toleration in Early Modern Political Thought$91941840 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03959nam 22006615 450 001 9910483978103321 005 20251113185704.0 010 $a3-030-61962-1 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-61962-6 035 $a(CKB)4100000011781426 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6511405 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6511405 035 $a(OCoLC)1241444657 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-61962-6 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011781426 100 $a20210301d2021 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 13$aAn Economist?s Lessons on Happiness $eFarewell Dismal Science! /$fby Richard A.

In this book Richard Easterlin, the ?father of happiness economics,? draws on a half-century of his own research and that conducted by fellow economists and psychologists to answer in plain language questions like: Can happiness be measured? Will more money make me happier? What about finding a partner? Getting married? Having a baby? More exercise? Does religion help? Who is happier?women or men, young or old, rich or poor? How does happiness change as we go through different stages of life? Public policy is also in the mix: Can the government increase people?s happiness? Should the government increase their happiness? Which countries are the happiest and why? Does a country need to be rich to be happy? Does economic growth improve the human lot? Some of the answers are surprising (no, more money won?t do the trick; neither will economicgrowth; babies are a mixed blessing!), but they are all based on reason and well-vetted evidence from the fields of economics and psychology. In closing, Easterlin traces the genesis of the ongoing ?Happiness Revolution? and considers its implications for people?s lives down the road. 410 0$aEconomics and Finance Series 606 $aExperimental economics 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aEconomics$xPsychological aspects 606 $aSocial choice 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aExperimental Economics 606 $aQuality of Life Research 606 $aEconomic Psychology 606 $aSocial Choice and Welfare 615 0$aExperimental economics. 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 0$aEconomics$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aSocial choice. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 14$aExperimental Economics. 615 24$aQuality of Life Research. 615 24$aEconomic Psychology. 615 24$aSocial Choice and Welfare. 676 $a330.019 676 $a330.019 700 $aEasterlin$b Richard A.$f1926-$0126475 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483978103321 996 $aAn economist's lessons on happiness$91890265 997 $aUNINA
