It aims to provoke conversation and positive change, and may challenge long-held views and extant ideologies. Written by eminent researchers and experienced practitioners, the book explores the principles that underpin living well, and gives examples of how this can be achieved not just in our own lives, but across communities and the planet we share. Chapters cover the stages of life from childhood to ageing, the foundations of everyday flourishing, including health and relationships, and finally wellbeing in the wider world, addressing issues such as economics, politics, and the environment. Based in the scientific evidence of what works and supported by illustrations of good practice, this book is both ambitious and aspirational. The book is designed for a wide audience - anyone seeking to create positive change in the world, their institutions or communities"-- UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003031789 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
