The Nordic people are a happy bunch! At least, every other survey on the subjects says that the Nordic countries - Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Iceland, Norway - are among the happiest of the world. Christian Bjørnskov, professor of economics has written the book on happiness - literally - which is why host Andrew Davidson is very keen on finding out why they're so happy, what it means for their societies, but also why a professor of economics knows so much about being happy.
