But have you ever asked yourself: can my condition really be changed? And if so, am I going about it in the most effective way?In this meticulously researched book, Martin Seligman, distinguished psychologist and bestselling author of LEARNED OPTIMISM, helps us realize clearly and realistically exactly what we can change and what we can't.
