Emotion, Well-Being, and Resilience-Theoretical Perspectives and Practical Applications

Abstract

Resources are required to minimize the daily threats in life; thus, discussions about the role of emotions, well-being, and resilience become imperative for human survival. The book reviewed here attempts to highlight the associations among human well-being, emotions, and resilience. The book showcases resilience as a conceptually and empirically robust construct useful for research and practice, and takes a comprehensive endeavour to provide the importance of resilience in various contexts by presenting suitable empirical evidences and applications. The book is deeply rooted in positive psychology and would be meaningful for scholars, leaders of organizations, and health professionals working in the areas of counselling, well-being, and community development.
