Description
In the twentieth and twenty-first centuries,
modern urban, industrial, affluent societies have
made great strides towards fixing some of the
problems that plagued other societies for
centuries food shortages are nearly eliminated,
infant and maternal mortality has fallen
dramatically, birth control is both
readily available and effective, education levels
are higher, and internal violence is
significantly reduced. Modernityâs blessings
are many and bountifulâbut has modernity really
made us happy?Satisfaction Not Guaranteed is a
book about the modern condition, and why the
gains of living in modern urban, industrial,
affluent societies have not proved more
satisfying than they have. It examines why real
results that paralleled earlier anticipations of
progress have not generated the ease
and contentment that the same forecasters assumed
would apply to modern life. Employing his
trademark inquiry of emotions in American
history, Peter N. Stearns asks why, if modern
life has been generally characterized by
measurable themes of progress, abundance, and
improvement, are people not happier or more
content with their lot in life? Why is there an
increased incidence of psychological
depression, anxiety, and the sense that no one
has ever reached a pinnacle of happiness or
contentment? Itâs not so much that modernity
went wrong, but rather that it has not gone as
swimmingly as was anticipated. Satisfaction Not
Guaranteed uses concrete examples from both
history and the present, such as happiness
surveys, to discuss how as a society we might
better juggle the demands of modern life with the
pursuit of happiness.
