When did you last feel exhilarated and light-hearted?
When did you last feel fully alive?
When did you last have fun?

In our always-on, tech-addicted lifestyles, the pursuit of fun has become an indulgence. We have forgotten how to relax.

Award-winning science journalist Catherine Price argues that fun is the key to living a more meaningful, fulfilling and happier life. If you prioritize fun, you will:

* Be healthier, less stressed and have more energy
* Find community and a sense of purpose
* Stop languishing and start flourishing

And best of all? You'll enjoy yourself!

Ground-breaking, eye-opening and packed with useful advice, The Power of Fun won't just change the way you think, it will bring you back to life.
