Journalist Anu Partanen immigrated from Finland to the US and was struck by how different her life became in ways that were positive and negative. In her book she invites us to draw on elements of the Nordic way of life to nurture a more fair, happier and less stressful society. This is a hopeful and well-documented book that draws on the author’s personal experiences as well as studies that compare the social systems of the US and Nordic countries.
