Positive Psychology: The Science of Happiness and Flourishing offers students an up-to-date and contemporary introduction to the field of positive psychology. Topically organized, authors William C. Compton and Edward Hoffman examine how Positive Psychology relates to stressors and health, within such traditional research areas as developmental, clinical, personality, motivational, social, and behavioral psychology. Updates to the Fourth Edition include new material on the spread of positive psychology around the world and expanded coverage on character strengths, emotional intelligence, leisure, and the biology of positive emotions.
