In The Happiness Hypothesis , Jonathan Haidt describes work by William Damon at Stanford that sought “to see why some professions seemed healthy while others were growing sick”: Picking the fields of genetics and journalism as case studies, they conducted dozens of interviews with people in each field. Their conclusion is as profound as it is simple: It’s a matter of alignment.
