Flourish

Author(s): Martin Seligman

SELF HELP

Flourish: A new understanding of life's greatest goals - and what it takes to reach them. In this groundbreaking book, one of the world's foremost academic psychologists and founder of the Positive Psychology movement, offers a new theory on what makes people flourish and how to truly get the most out of life. In a fascinating evolution of thought, Flourish refines what Positive Psychology is all about and offers inspiring stories of Positive Psychology in action - innovative schools that add resilience to their curricula, with a case study of Geelong Grammar in particular, a new theory of success and intelligence; and evidence on how positive physical health can turn medicine on its head. Building on his game-changing work on optimism, motivation, and character, Dr Martin Seligman shows us how to flourish and bring well-being into our own lives.
