Would you like to live to the age of 100? This chapter will share some “secrets” to healthy aging supported by sociological research. You will also learn that the U.S. is the only industrialized nation without universal healthcare coverage.
Historically, Americans believed that citizens must earn the privilege of accessing healthcare rather than healthcare being a human right. Today, most Americans support universal healthcare, but attempts at passing legislation have been unsuccessful over the past three decades.
You will learn more about the science of happiness in this chapter, and we hope that it is already making a slight difference in your life. There are so many online resources to learn more about happiness, and we want to share one of our favorites — TED Talks — What Makes You Happy? These talks are by some of the leading experts and are inspiring. Enjoy!
