The Law of Happiness
by Henry Cloud
Cloud summarises happiness research through a Christian lens: happy people give, connect, forgive, pursue goals, have faith, and do not wait on circumstances. Short and derivative of the positive-psychology literature; useful for readers who want it with Scripture.
