In the absence of a single simple answer, what we need is a toolkit of mental models, a guide to practical living. In The Art of the Good Life , you'll find fifty-two intellectual shortcuts for wiser thinking and better decisions, at home and at work. They may not guarantee you a good life, but they'll give you a better chance.
