All human decision-making is preceded by some kind of desire, and we act upon desires by either rejecting or following them. It argues that our views on and expressions of desire in various facets of life and through time have differed according to how human beings are taught to desire. Therefore, the concept has tremendous potential to affect human beings positively and to enable personal growth. Though excellent research has been done on the concepts of flourishing, character education and positive psychology, no other work has linked the concept of desire to all of these topics. Featuring key references, explanations of central concepts, and significant practical applications of desire to various fields of human thought and action, the book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of positive psychology, positive education, moral philosophy, and virtue ethics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Magdalena Bosch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030470008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030470005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/24\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.00d","brand":"Magdalena Bosch","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073529311487,"sku":"9783030470005","price":219.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ff186f4f-7a4a-4d30-817c-71793bdc2604.jpg?v=1685448357","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/desire-and-human-flourishing-magdalena-bosch-9783030470005","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
