Theauthors review recent developments in the field, includingbooks, meetings, courses, and conferences. They also dis-cuss the newly created classification of character strengthsand virtues, a Positive complement to the various editionsof theDiagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disor-ders(e. g., American Psychiatric Association, 1994), andpresent some cross-cultural findings that suggest a surpris-ing ubiquity of strengths and virtues. Finally, the authorsfocus on psychological interventions that increase individ-ual happiness.
