John Helliwell is a professor emeritus of Economics at University of British Columbia and distinguished senior fellow at the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research. He is the editor of the World Happiness Report. A landmark survey of the state of global happiness that ranks 156 countries by how happy their citizens perceive them to be that has been running for the last decade.

5. Pursuing personal happiness vs. happiness of others
