About this Episode

This is a clip from a wonderful book titled Stumbling on Happiness. Professor Gilbert beautifully illustrates why it is impossible to rate experiences of other people. In fact he makes a compelling case that we can not even rate past experiences or future experiences with any accuracy. If you like this clip, you will love the book.
