Story
This book will help you flourish. With this unprecedented promise, internationally esteemed psychologist Martin Seligman begins Flourish, his first book in 10 years - and the first to present his dynamic new concept of what well-being really is. Traditionally, the goal of psychology has been to relieve human suffering, but the goal of the Positive Psychology movement, which Dr. Seligman has led for 15 years, is different - it’s about actually raising the bar for the human condition.

What the critics say
"Finally we have a self-help book from a reputable scientist whose advice is based on the best experimental data... The How of Happiness is smart, fun, and interesting - and unlike almost every other book on the same shelf, it also happens to be true." (Daniel Gilbert, Harvard University professor of psychology and author of Stumbling on Happiness)
"A guide to sustaining your newfound contentment." (Psychology Today)
"Lyubomirsky's central point is clear: a significant portion of what is called happiness . . . is up for grabs. Taking some pages out of the positive psychology playbook, she coaches readers on how to snag it." (The New York Review of Books)

So practical and helpful!
This book is the best happiness/positive psychology book I have read so far -- I'm researching the topic so I've read ten. This one is the most practical, powerful, and convincing.

very good, a touch dull
Excellent info, lots of practical tips from solid research. however it reads a bit like a social science text book. A touch dull at least from a listener’s perspective. Might have been better as a book or maybe if i had done a chapter a day to spread it out
