    Recenzii

    “Nastasi and Borja offer a comprehensive overview of a global research approach regarding well-being with children and adolescents. … This book could serve as a foundation for understanding how well-being develops, as well as techniques for increasing well-being. … The chapters are well-organized and the direction of the project is easily followed by initially providing a description of the research format, then studies in particular countries, and an overview of results and recommendations.” (Elaine A. Burke, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (20), May, 2017)
