Are We Happier?

from Contact (1997) by Carl Sagan, James V. Hart, and Michael GoldenbergRating: 4.2     (87 ratings)

 
What I'm asking is... are we happier? Is the world fundamentally a better place because of science and technology? We shop at home, we surf the Web, and at the same time we feel emptier, lonelier, and more cut off from each other than at any other time in human history...
