Rezension zu „Well-Being “
'...an important contribution to positive psychology. John Haworth and Graham Hart have brought together a panel of international experts to authoritatively outline the state of the science of well-being and the implications of this for research, policy and practice.' - Alan Carr, University College Dublin, Republic of Ireland 'This is a book that should be widely read. Whilst undergraduate and postgraduate students in a range of disciplines and professional areas including leisure, psychology, health and medicine will find it a scholarly and well researched contribution to their studies, this book deserves a wider audience.'- Andy Smith, Managing Leisure
