Stare bene. Un'analisi filosofica

Different definitions of well-being result in different choices regarding policies, research, medical practices, and personal decisions. This book provides an overview of well-being sciences, focusing on health, well-being, and quality of life in both biomedical and social settings. In seven chapters meant for a broad audience, the author looks at health as both the lack of disease and overall well-being, discusses various philosophical views on well-being, examines challenges in measurement, and considers the effects on older adults, people with disabilities, and those with chronic illnesses.
