Authentic Happiness: Using the New Positive Psychology to Realise your Potential for Lasting Fulfilment: Cărți despre fericire
Autor Martin Seligmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 feb 2017
Notăm cu interes un detaliu care separă acest volum de restul literaturii motivaționale: autorul ne propune un inventar riguros al celor 24 de forțe și virtuți universale, invitându-ne să ne identificăm propriile „puncte forte specifice” pentru a construi o viață cu sens. În Authentic Happiness, descoperim că fericirea nu este un accident al norocului, ci o abilitate care poate fi cultivată prin exercițiu și rigoare științifică. Reținem abordarea pragmatică a lui Martin Seligman, care transformă cercetarea academică într-un ghid aplicabil în cele mai importante aspecte ale existenței: cariera, relațiile de cuplu și creșterea copiilor. Complementar volumului Learned Optimism, unde acela se concentrează pe mecanismele de combatere a pesimismului prin schimbarea stilului explicativ, Authentic Happiness explorează activarea potențialului pozitiv și construirea unor „amortizoare” naturale împotriva emoțiilor negative. În economia operei sale, această lucrare reprezintă pilonul central care face trecerea de la studiul depresiei, explorat în The Optimistic Child, către noua paradigmă a „înfloririi” umane detaliată ulterior în Flourish. Stilul este unul echilibrat, evitând entuziasmul nefondat în favoarea unor argumente extrase din ani de studii clinice, oferind cititorului o structură logică pentru a trece de la simpla plăcere trecătoare la o satisfacție durabilă și profundă.

Seligman takes the best, most recent science in psychology and applies it to our oldest, most basic human questions: How can we be happy? And how can we be good? His book is groundbreaking, heart-lifting, and most important, deeply useful. With pun intended, I'm optimistic about its success.
An impressive achievement. This book will change how people view psychology and how all of us view ourselves.
