A report from a group of researchers in the Values in Action Classification Project, this is a handbook of human strengths and virtues. Addressing issues of assessment and measurement, and directions for future research, it is aimed at a pscyhologist who is interested in positive psychology and its relevance to clinical, and social psychology.

This groundbreaking handbook of human strengths and virtues, co-published by the Oxford University Press and the American Psychological Association, is the first progress report from a prestigious group of researchers in the Values in Action Classification Project, which has undertaken a systematic classification and measurement of universal strengths and virtues.
