Dear colleagues,
Apologies for cross posting
Some of you may be interested in a recently published book that uses biographical/narrative methods to examine the wellbeing/happiness of people from different social backgrounds.
It draws on sociological, psychological and some psychoanalytical methods/theories to examine the creative ways people shape their wellbeing as well as the different ways that happiness/good life is structured by cultural/economic and social policy processes.
