A 2024 Favorite Book of the Year, The Greater Good Science Center
Emerging research in psychological and philosophical circles is showing us that there is more to the good life than current—and even ancient—conversation suggests, and the results are exhilarating. Psychological richness is the missing piece to the good life, and, Lorraine Besser, a founding investigator in these studies, shows how we can add it to our lives by making them full of the Interesting—experiences that captivate and engage our minds, stimulating new thoughts and emotions, that often impact over very perspective.
It’s different for everyone, and everyone can obtain and strengthen the skills necessary to access it. Even better, Besser shows how we can make our lives more interesting without having to make dramatic changes to them. The Interesting is within everyone’s reach, once we know how to go for it.
