PRH Education/Common Reads presents:
unCommon Authors
unCommon Authors is a monthly video series highlighting exceptional and
unique authors talking about their books.
In The Meaning of Your Life, social scientist and happiness expert Arthur Brooks examines why modern life can feel empty despite material progress and argues that cultural and technological shifts have made meaning harder to access. Drawing on science, philosophy, and faith traditions, Brooks outlines practical ways to cultivate purpose, deepen relationships, and orient one’s life around a clearer sense of meaning.

He is a Harvard professor, columnist with The Free Press, host of the podcast Office Hours, CBS News contributor, and internationally acclaimed public speaker. His previous books have been translated into dozens of languages and include the bestsellers Build the Life You Want (co-authored with Oprah Winfrey), From Strength to Strength, and Love Your Enemies.
