Inhaltsangabe

An international bestseller, Authentic Happiness launched the revolutionary new science of Positive Psychology and sparked a coast-to-coast debate on the nature of real happiness.

"A practical map for a flourishing life." Daniel Goleman, bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence

In this groundbreaking, heart-lifting book, internationally esteemed psychologist and bestselling author, Martin Seligman, shows that happiness is not the result of good genes or luck - it can be learned and cultivated.

Real, lasting happiness comes from focusing on your personal strengths rather than weaknesses and working with them to improve all aspects of your life. Using practical exercises and brief tests he shows you how to identify your greatest strengths and virtues and use them in ways you haven't yet considered.

By calling on your signature strengths, you will not only develop natural buffers against misfortune and negative emotion, but also improve the world around you - at work, in love and in raising children - achieving new and sustainable contentment, joy and meaning.

Accessible and proven, Authentic Happiness is the most powerful work of popular psychology in years.
