The Evolution of Personality

This exceptionally timely book by the author of the famous theory of happiness is dedicated to the fate of the world. Only active and conscious participation in the evolutionary process will help us fill our lives with meaning and joy, believes Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, the most cited psychologist of our time. The fate of humanity in the next millennium depends on who we will become today. Will we want to set "complex" tasks for ourselves, free ourselves from the influence of "memes," outdated behavior patterns, and manipulation of our consciousness? The unification of the efforts of many people, each of whom realizes their own potential, and a social rethinking of our evolutionary heritage will allow us to direct the power of the life-giving flow towards addressing the challenges of modernity. This is the key not only to the survival of our species but also to its true revival. It is recommended for everyone to read.
