Depression - Types, Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Depression is one of the most common mental disorders affecting approximately 340 million people in the world. No one is immune from depression - it occurs in people of all social classes, all countries and all cultural settings.

"Most policy-making on happiness has focused on improving conditions for individuals. Our research suggests that more should be done to support the actions of both men and women in caring for others, because that will have benefits for everybody's quality of life," said lead author Professor Jacqueline Scott.

The study also found that many people were deriving happiness from the success of those closest to them. The details of the study appear in a book called Gender Inequalities in the 21st Century.
