Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience

Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi’s famous investigations of \”optimal experience\” have revealed that what makes an experience genuinely satisfying is a state of consciousness called \”flow.\” During flow, people typically experience deep enjoyment, creativity, and a total involvement with life. In this new edition of his groundbreaking classic work, Csikszentmihalyi demonstrates the ways this positive state can be controlled, not just left to chance. \”Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience\” teaches how, by ordering the information that enters our consciousness, we can discover true happiness and greatly improve the quality of our lives.
