Abstract

It is a delight and a great honor to have been invited by Prof. Alex Michalos to take part in the Festfricht of Prof. Ruut Veenhoven, so I would like to start by thanking Prof. Michalos for having considered me for this task. Participating in such an important editorial work is a great responsibility, as Prof. Veenhoven is a pioneer in happiness studies and we have all read and studied his books and attended his lectures in different parts of the world.
