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.

Professor Schneiderman uses material from two National Public Radio shows (Speaking of Faith and Talk of the Nation) to frame the topic of happiness.
