Glad I came across this! I just started reading a book titled ‘The Origins Of Happiness’ by David Smail, which puts forth a more broad thesis of mental illness, but very comparable.
An interesting fact is that there were a couple of 19th century economists who predicted everything here. The Soviet Union took their works for-granted by abusing them, and the United States took their works for-granted by ignoring them. The world might be better off to just not take those works for-granted at all.
