Diez grandes ideas de la sabidur�a antigua para vivir m�s felices hoy, del autor de La mente de los justos y La generaci�n ansiosa.
Jonathan Haidt, uno de los m�s destacados representantes de la psicolog�a positiva --una rama de la psicolog�a que busca comprender los procesos que subyacen a las cualidades y emociones positivas del ser humano-- conjuga la precisi�n cient�fica con la amenidad y la calidad literarias para presentar 10 grandes ideas que Haidt rescata de la sabidur�a antigua (los Upanishad, el Bhagavad Gita o los proverbios de Buda), China (las Analectas de Confucio, el Tao te ching o los escritos de Mencio) y las culturas del Mediterr�neo (el Viejo y el Nuevo Testamento, los fil�sofos griegos y latinos, el Cor�n).
Cap�tulo a cap�tulo Haidt desgrana cada una de esas ideas y las contrasta con los �ltimos hallazgos de la ciencia contempor�nea. El resultado es una fresca y enriquecedora gu�a que, alejada de los manuales de autoayuda, desvela los pasos que seguir en nuestro camino a la felicidad.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Ten great ideas from ancient wisdom to live happier today, by the author of The Righteous Mind and The Anxious Generation.
Jonathan Haidt, one of the leading figures in positive psychology--a branch of psychology that seeks to understand the processes behind human strengths and positive emotions--combines scientific precision with engaging and literary style to present 10 timeless ideas drawn from ancient wisdom (the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and Buddha's proverbs), China (Confucius's Analects, the Tao te Ching, and Mencius's writings), and Mediterranean cultures (the Old and New Testaments, Greek and Roman philosophers, and the Qur'an).
Chapter by chapter, Haidt unpacks each of these ideas and contrasts them with the latest findings in contemporary science. The result is a fresh and enriching guide that, far from typical self-help manuals, reveals practical steps to follow on our path to happiness.
