Offering an approach that focuses on the origins of mental health rather than the beginnings of mental illness, this book outlines how men and women can recognize the resilient traits they possess and foster the strength to overcome tragedy.

An inspiring and invigorating book!

Resilient Adults Bewertungen

A deeply moving book: inspirational, celebratory, incredibly optimistic, practical, powerful, and beautifully written.

Excellent. . . . There are many new titles about optimal personality development but few are as well researched or as inspiring as Higgins' Resilient Adults.
