Living the Good Life: A Psychological History is a collection of writings about the good life from some of the renowned psychologists and psychological thinkers in the history of the discipline. Through the selected readings, students become familiar with various views on what makes for a positive, fulfilled existence from behavioral, psychodynamic, humanistic, and multicultural perspectives.

Featuring the work of seminal psychological thinkers such as Sigmund Freud, B.F. Skinner, Karen Horney, Carl Rogers, and Ana s Nin, the book encourages readers to examine their diverse viewpoints on making life both significant and joyous. New in the second edition, Frantz Fanon questions whether peaceful resistance is the best method for change, bell hooks encourages consciousness raising about sexism, and Haque introduces readers to Muslim contributions to psychology.

With its emphasis on personal growth and development, Living the Good Life is an ideal reader for courses in the history of psychology or well-being and health psychology.
