Flourish: A Visionary New Understanding of Happiness and Well-Being by Martin Seligman

3.0

I enjoyed reading Shawn Achor's book on The Happiness Advantage, so when a friend recommended this book to me, I readily added it to my list. While I like the message and information in Flourish, I found the book to be somewhat dry. I also found the author to be a bit self-gratifying of his endeavors to advance Positive Psychology. There are some really good bits of information in the book and am happy that I read it for those reasons alone. Martin Seligman has done some groundbreaking work in a very interesting field overlooked and dismissed by many. Go ahead and give it a read.
