Derren Brown | Happy | Talks at Google
563Mentalist and illusionist DERREN BROWN discusses his work on the psychology and philosophy of well-being. Derren Brown is a mentalist and illusionist who has written several best-selling books and – a first in the history of magic – has toured with eight sell-out one-man stage shows. He wrote the brilliant and candid book “Happy,” which aims to reclaim happiness and enable us to appreciate the good things in life, in all their transient glory. By taking control of the stories we tell ourselves, by remembering that 'everything's fine' even when it might not feel that way, we can allow ourselves to flourish and live more happily.
Moderated by Matt Brittin.
