This book is about hope and a call to action to make the world the kind
of place we want to live in. Our hope is to provoke conversation, and
gently challenge possibly long-held views, beliefs, and ideologies about
the way the world works and the people in that world.
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.
