In Me, But Better, Olga [Khazan] embarks on an experiment to see whether it's possible to go from dwelling in dread to "radiating joy." For one year, Olga reluctantly clicks "yes" on a bucket list of new experiences--from meditation to improv to sailing--that forced her to at least act happy. With a skeptic's eye, Olga brings you on her journey throught the science of personality, presenting evidence-backed techniques to help you change your mind for the better."--Dust jacket flap ER -
