Looking for an introduction to positive psychology that offers
real-life examples? This overview of the science of happiness
supplies case studies from some of the world's most successful
organizations and describes ways to experience the personal impact
of this exciting scientific field. Rather than focusing on treating
what is "wrong" with a person, positive psychology seeks to
understand and foster the things that drive happiness, creativity,
and emotional fulfillment. This is a relatively new area of
psychological study, and this reference book presents the research
and practice of positive psychology in an informative and
accessible format. Readers are given a history of the field, its
current applications, and the future implications of this
psychological discipline. Case studies from companies such as The
Body Shop, Volvo, Zappos, and Google highlight the impact of
positive psychology when it's applied in a modern business setting.
These case studies, along with biographies of leaders in the field,
highlight each chapter and connect the dots between the empirical
theory of positive psychology and its practice. Readers also
receive tools to apply the practices to their own lives. Grounded
in academics but accessible to a wide range of readers Challenges
the reader to engage in the material and examine the application of
positive psychology across multiple domains Provides an extensive
bibliography with references to books, journal articles, popular
press articles, and websites Includes examples of how media and
technology can promote happiness and well-being Provides practical
and applied knowledge in the field that can be used in one's daily
life
