Positive Psychological Science
«
"Donaldson, Csikszentmihalyi, and Nakamura have outdone themselves. They have managed to push the boundaries of knowledge on positive psychology even farther by integrating the contribution of some of the most brilliant contributors in the field. Chapters address themes such as positive work, education, relationships, lifespan development, and mentoring while leaving room for theory and applications. This book is a must read! I recommend it for all those interested in positive psychology, students, scientists, and practitioners alike."—Robert J. Vallerand, University of Quebec in Montreal, Canada
"The second edition of Positive Psychological Science is a must read for anyone in the field or anyone interested in the field. This book captures a fascinating selection of the latest science and practice as it relates to individual development, workplaces, schools and society. The scientific contributions are of the highest standard and the recommendations for application are actionable and are bound to have impact. What a treat to hear from luminaries in the field who have come together in this book to keep us all updated on the developments in the very exciting field that is Positive Psychology." —Lea Waters, University of Melbourne, Australia
