Praise for Positive Psychology in Practice, Second Edition “When the first edition of Positive Psychology in Practice arrived in 2004, it was an early and authoritative reference for an emerging science and its application Now, a decade later, we are graced with a second edition Here, you will find updated chapters and all new content This book provides a deep dive into current trends in research and practice for anyone interested in positive psychology.” —Dr Robert Biswas-Diener, author of The Upside of Your Dark Side and The Courage Quotient and Professor at Portland State University “One of psychology’s best books just got better Experts, evidence, applications— exactly what you need to make positive psychology work in practice, and work well A definite resource addition to my own library and practice.” —George Burns, Adjunct Professor of Psychology at the Cairnmillar Institute in Australia and author of 101 Healing Stories and Happiness, Healing, Enhancement “For each of the past 10 years, I have assigned Positive Psychology in Practice as required reading for my course on positive interventions in the Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) program at the University of Pennsylvania I am delighted to see this second edition, which expands the content in exciting new directions and brings the chapters up to date My students and I are grateful to Stephen Joseph and the many chapter authors for this valuable contribution to the field.” —James O Pawelski, Director of Education and Senior Scholar, Positive Psychology Center, University of Pennsylvania “This book is a critical companion for anyone who works for the betterment of others, be they an educator, a consultant, a coach, a health professional of some kind, or an applied researcher Stephen Joseph set out to assemble a volume of wide-ranging appeal and he has delivered precisely that It expands wonderfully on the first edition, capturing much of what has transpired in the field over the past decade My first edition copy will finally get a well-deserved rest!” —Dr Gordon Spence, Program Director, Master of Business Coaching, Sydney Business School, University of Wollongon, Australia “This is an excellent book that provides an up-to-date, accessible, and comprehensive overview of the best positive psychology interventions that are currently available It reflects a deep understanding of positive psychology, as it not only gives an accurate account of the field’s growing complexities but also addresses the movement’s roots within the history of psychology.” —Carmelo Vázquez, Complutense University, Madrid, Spain, and President of the International Positive Psychology Association “Positive Psychology in Practice, 2e is a milestone in the annals of texts detailing the intricacies of positive psychological inquiry Its stress on the social implications of positive psychology, for example, makes it not only relevant to public policy but also to the kind of society, and indeed world, we wish to foster Furthermore, its coverage of humanistic and existential perspectives on positive psychological practice will be greatly welcomed in those areas of our profession that have been skeptical of conventional positive psychological emphases on the ‘good life’ with relatively less emphasis on the ‘full’ or ‘vital’ life These existential and humanistic dimensions add notably to our deepening knowledge of such areas as resilience, posttraumatic growth, and qualitative/subjective experiences of what it means to flourish In short, I highly recommend Positive Psychology in Practice, 2e as a rigorous and humanizing exploration of the vital life.” —Kirk Schneider, PhD, adjunct faculty member at Saybrook University and Teachers College, Columbia University, and author of Existential-Humanistic Therapy, The Handbook of Humanistic Psychology, and The Polarized Mind Positive Psychology in Practice Promoting Human Flourishing in
