Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

People enter a flow state when they are fully absorbed in activity during which they lose their sense of time and have feelings of great satisfaction. The author, a pioneer in this astonishing field of study, clearly explains the principles of "flow" and shows how it can be introduced into every level of life.

Review:

"It rethinks what motivates people."(--Newsweek)

Synopsis:

The bestselling introduction to "flow"--a groundbreaking psychological theory that shows readers how to improve the quality of life. "The way to happiness lies not in mindless hedonism, but in mindful change."--New York Times Book Review
