Download or read book Mass Flourishing written by Edmund S. Phelps and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Nobel Prize-winning economist Edmund Phelps draws on a lifetime of thinking to make a sweeping new argument about what makes nations prosper--and why the sources of that prosperity are under threat today. Why did prosperity explode in some nations between the 1820s and 1960s, creating not just unprecedented material wealth but "flourishing"--meaningful work, self-expression, and personal growth for more people than ever before? Phelps makes the case that the wellspring of this flourishing was modern values such as the desire to create, explore, and meet challenges. These values fueled the grassroots dynamism that was necessary for widespread, indigenous innovation. Most innovation wasn't driven by a few isolated visionaries like Henry Ford and Steve Jobs; rather, it was driven by millions of people empowered to think of, develop, and market innumerable new products and processes, and improvements to existing ones. Mass flourishing--a combination of material well-being and the "good life" in a broader sense--was created by this mass innovation. Yet indigenous innovation and flourishing weakened decades ago. In America, evidence indicates that innovation and job satisfaction have decreased since the late 1960s, while postwar Europe has never recaptured its former dynamism. The reason, Phelps argues, is that the modern values underlying the modern economy are under threat by a resurgence of traditional, corporatist values that put the community and state over the individual. The ultimate fate of modern values is now the most pressing question for the West: will Western nations recommit themselves to modernity, grassroots dynamism, indigenous innovation, and widespread personal fulfillment, or will we go on with a narrowed innovation that limits flourishing to a few? A book of immense practical and intellectual importance, Mass Flourishing is essential reading for anyone who cares about the sources of prosperity and the future of the West.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Assembles a team of leading researchers to provide unparalleled insight into how American social attitudes and behaviors have changed since the 1970s. Drawing on the General Social Survey--a social science project that has tracked demographic and attitudinal trends in the United States since 1972--it offers a window into diverse facets of American life, from intergroup relations to political views and orientations, social affiliations, and perceived well-being. Among the book's many important findings are the greater willingness of ordinary Americans to accord rights of free expression to unpopular groups, to endorse formal racial equality, and to accept nontraditional roles for women in the workplace, politics, and the family. Some, but not all, signs indicate that political conservatism has grown, while a few suggest that Republicans and Democrats are more polarized. Some forms of social connectedness such as neighboring have declined, as has confidence in government, while participation in organized religion has softened. Despite rising standards of living, American happiness levels have changed little, though financial and employment insecurity has risen over three decades"--Publisher description.

This book was released on 2021-04-30 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Health Organization approximates that 350 million people worldwide are affected by depression and anxiety as a leading cause of disability worldwide (World Health Organization, 2018). Nutritional Psychiatry as “Mental Health Nutrition” is an emerging field that explores the changes that how nutritional interventions can maintain one's mental health. Researches indicate that the foods we consume significantly influence our brain function and gut health, which in turn shape our mental health and behaviour. Ensuring dietary intake of essential vitamins and minerals is vital for optimal mental health. Minerals, especially choline, zinc, magnesium, iron and iodine have important roles in neurological function through production of neurotransmitters. Insufficient levels of vitamins: Vitamin D, Folic Acid and Vitamin B Complex give a rise in levels of both anxiety and depression. Methylation is an important process in the body that prevents the build-up of homocysteine, a substance that may be toxic to the brain. Folate and vitamin B12 are both crucially required to prevent accumulation of homocysteine that may be toxic to brain. Similarly, omega-3 fatty acids and amino acid- specially tryptophan is needed to create a mood-modulating chemicals serotonin and functioning of nervous system. Besides the foregoing, cysteine, a sulphur-based amino acid gets converted into glutathione: the body’s most powerful antioxidant. When cysteine is given as a supplement known as N-acetyl cysteine, itis converted into glutathione, evidently helpful in treatment of bipolar depression, schizophrenia, and other neurotic and addictive behaviours. Conclusively nutritional psychiatry is supplementation of essential nutrients should be acknowledged as a treatment to maintain good mental health and wellbeing.
