Optimistic Child

"The book benefits from Seligman's easy-going, readable style that renders complex concepts accessible to readers with no background in psychology. Technical information is kept to a minimum....The value of this book may rest not so much in the coping skills it might teach, but rather in its implicit message that parents are the prime shapers of the way their children come to view the world. Family relationships can only improve, and the lives of children only benefit, if parents can practice more optimism in their interactions with each other and with their children."Seligman, Martin E. is the author of 'Optimistic Child', published 1996 under ISBN 9780060977092 and ISBN 0060977094.
