New Dimensions in Community Well-Being cover

This volume addresses new innovations in quality of life and well-being from the perspectives of the individual, society and community. It aggregates the perspectives, research questions, methods and results that consider how quality of life is influenced in our modern society. Chapters in this volume present theoretical and practical examples on different aspects of quality of life and community well-being representing American, European, Native American and African perspectives. This volume is of interest to scholars in sociology, psychology, economy, philosophy, health research as well as practitioners across the social sciences. 

“The book is particularly useful for Master and PhD students as it offers an up-to date overview of the field’s main theoretical approaches and several examples of empirical researches worldwide. Members of the scientific community can find many insights for their own theoretical and empirical research projects; practitioners in both the private and third sector and public officials can find ideas from the analyzed case studies to improve the implementation of theirs programs and activities.” (Andrea Bassi, Applied Research Quality Life, Vol. 13, 2018)
