Daniel Kahneman on two kinds of happiness

Daniel Kahneman: The riddle of experience vs. memory at TED 2010. Video, 20 minutes, transcript to right of video.

Kahneman, one of the founders of behavioural economics, on how our remembered happiness correlates only weakly with our experienced moment-to-moment happiness, and the profound implications for the study of happiness and the pursuit of happiness. I'll find it hard to think about happiness the same way again.
