You can't take a leap of faith without it. It lets you dream of a brighter future. And in a world worn down by political conflict, climate change, war, and other perils, many worry about losing it. Pioneering psychologist William R. Miller takes a fresh look at hope and its transformative potential in this concise, compassionate book. Explore eight different facets of hope that enable people to clarify their goals, envision new possibilities, find purpose, enhance motivation, and persevere against tough odds. Dr. Miller guides you to reflect on your own relationship to hope and how you can cultivate it. Vivid personal stories, historical examples, and cutting-edge scientific findings reveal how choosing hope over fear can be a powerful force for change.

“A profoundly satisfying, enlightening book.”--Monty Roberts, author of The Man Who Listens to Horses"Hope is a superpower--it helps people solve problems, recover from injuries, and have better relationships. Rich with storytelling, this book is full of optimism and purpose. It shows how to use hope to lead a more fulfilling life."--Scott T. Walters, PhD, Regents Professor, School of Public Health, University of North Texas Health Science Center"Combine great passion for science with deep reverence for the transcendent. Mix in attention to detail and add a large dollop of artistic sensibility. The result is this exquisite gem, which helps us better understand and find multiple paths to hope. In his trademark style, Dr. Miller takes complex science and presents it in language that anyone can understand and use. You may not know it yet, but you need this book--we all do."--David B. Rosengren, PhD, President and CEO, Prevention Research Institute"The reader will finish this wonderful book with a deeper understanding of hope and how to cultivate it. Thank you, Dr. Miller, for sending this gift out into the world.”--Michael McGee, MD, DLFAPA, author of The Joy of Recovery"At a time when it feels like hope belongs on the 'most endangered' list, this book shows hope is still very much alive. I found myself laughing at times and even tearing up over Dr. Miller's stories of everyday heroes who live with and spread hope."--Annam Manthiram, nonprofit executive, Dallas"Dr. Miller uses science, history, the arts, and a lifetime of personal experience to illuminate each facet of hope. He reveals ways to see, grasp, hold onto, and live in hope."--Charles H. Bombardier, PhD, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, University of Washington-
