Using the New Positive Psychology to Realise Your Potential for Lasting Fulfillment.
'Authentic Happiness' is the first book to examine the mechanisms by which mentally healthy people become happy, and how happy people become very happy. Martin Seligman is the international leader of the Positive Psychology Movement.
His first book, the international bestseller 'Learned Optimism', greatly influenced the way people thought about mental health by bringing the concepts of cognitive psychology to a mass audience. 'Authentic Happiness' is an even bigger ground-breaker.
It represents the first time any scientist has placed value in the study not only of mental illness, but of "mental wellness". It's not about curing one's ills, but about exercising one's strengths and virtues in order to achieve what Seligman terms "authentic happiness".
The life-changing lesson of this book is that, by assessing the very best in ourselves, we can improve the world around us and achieve new and lasting levels of genuine contentment and joy.
