书籍简介

我们希望孩子对未来怀抱信心、对远景勇于探险、有足够的勇气来实行社会正义；

我们希望孩子在面对成长所带来的挫折与失败时，不屈不挠；

我们希望孩子能够获得幸福一生的能力。

《教出乐观的孩子》是积极心理学之父马丁•塞利格曼集30年、千百个成人及儿童研究之精华著成的教育经典。而大量研究表明，比起成功，乐观对孩子来说更具有意义、更具有价值。乐观的孩子，更容易成功，更有创造力，更容易有幸福的生活，我们传统上追求的财富成功，都可以通过乐观获得。

《教出乐观的孩子》一书目的在于让父母、老师及整个教育系统教会儿童习得乐观。这本书与其他育儿及自我提升书籍不同的是，它不仅有理论与实验，还有一些关于育儿问题的重要建议。一些自称专家的人，轻率的意见令许多父母如获救命稻草，基于脆弱的证明、原理和临床的假设，来改变自己抚养孩子的方式。《教出乐观的孩子》彻底改变这一点，特别反驳了纯粹的正向教育、纯粹的鼓励式教育和自尊教育，倡导用科学、理性的ABCDE法则教出乐观的孩子。

In The Optimistic Child, Dr. Martin E. P. Seligman offers parents, teachers, and coaches a well-validated program to prevent depression in children. In a thirty-year study, Seligman and his colleagues discovered the link between pessimism -- dwelling on the most catastrophic cause of any setback -- and depression. Seligman shows adults how to teach children the skills of optimism that can help them combat depression, achieve more on the playing field and at school, and improve their physical health.

As Seligman states in his new afterword for this edition, "Teaching children optimism is more, I realized, than just correcting pessimism . . . It is the creation of a positive strength, a sunny but solid future-mindedness that can be deployed throughout life -- not only to fight depression and to come back from failure, but also to be the foundation of success and vitality."
