Peterson, an award-winning professor of psychology, provides a comprehensive overview of positive psychology, offering valuable insights on how to live a happier and more fulfilling life. The book is filled with theory, case studies, and practical exercises that can be applied to one's own life. What I loved most about this book is that it is not just for academic purposes, but it is also highly relatable and applicable to everyday life. Peterson's writing style is engaging and down-to-earth, making it feel like you're having a conversation with him. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of positive psychology and learn how to maximize their potential for happiness. It truly is a game-changer. Review: Wonderful book that really introduces you to this entirely different way of thinking - This book is beyond amazing. I had never heard of positive psychology until I had enrolled in a positive psychology course in college. Peterson really helps open up this whole new world within psychology that looks at the world with a positive spin. What I love best about this book is that everything Peterson talks about applies directly to your own life. You can take the theories he mentions and the life-altering tips he presents and use them in your life. I know I actively try to do that and I really think it has helped me personally. The book is genuinely interesting to read, regardless of whether or not it is for an assignment. Everyone should read this book, especially if you're not in a positive psychology class. It really helps you realize what's important in your life so you can make the most of it and be happy. I love it. Peterson is phenomenal and so interesting to read, yet so down to earth at the same time. Reading this book often makes me feel like I'm having a conversation with Peterson himself, and when that happens, you know it's a great book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #412,766 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #814 in Psychology Movements (Books) #821 in Psychology (Books) #873 in Popular Social Psychology & Interactions | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 233 Reviews | ## Images ![A Primer in Positive Psychology (Oxford Positive Psychology Series) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71X705m3TeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Comprehensive and Inspiring Guide to Positive Psychology *by J***S on November 8, 2023* I read A Primer in Positive Psychology by Chris Peterson, and I must say, it is an outstanding book.

Peterson’s book gives a comprehensive and compelling overview on positive psychology, essentially the scientific study of what goes right in life and how we can use these insights to help all of us live the good life. This ‘bible’ of positive psychology offers an excellent mix of theory, case studies, exercises and resources for further exploration. I met Chris Peterson in 2008 as part of a course I attended on the science of positive psychology and this was one of our class reads. It was an eye opener of how ~40% of our well being (our happiness) is up to us. And to discover what my signature strengths were and how I could use them more, in novel ways and feel energized and in the flow. I recommend you read his footnotes – they are pearls of insight and full of personal anecdotes – many have caused me to break out in loud laughter, regardless of where I was, be it in my own private home, on the train or in a Pain Quotidien in Midtown. He often would close his lectures with saying "Other people matter".
