Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience

<p>Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi's famous investigations of "optimal experience" have revealed that what makes an experience genuinely satisfying is a state of consciousness called <em>flow</em>. 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. <em>Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience</em> teaches how, by ordering the information that enters our consciousness, we can discover true happiness and greatly improve the quality of our lives.</p&gt
