*Description

The Routledge Handbook of Positive Communication forms a comprehensive 
reference point for cross-disciplinary approaches to understanding the 
central role of communication in the construction of hedonic and 
eudemonic happiness,or subjective and psychological well-being. 
Including contributions from internationally recognized authors in their 
respective fields, this reference uses as its focus five main scenarios 
where communication affects the life of individuals: mass and digital 
media, advertising and marketing communication, external and internal 
communication in companies and organizations, communication in 
education, and communication in daily life interactions.
