What is well-being? This is one of humanity's oldest and deepest questions; Valerie Tiberius offers a fresh answer. She argues that our lives go well to the extent that we succeed in what matters to us emotionally, reflectively, and over the long term. So when we want to help others achieve well-being, we should pay attention to their values.

What is human well-being? Valerie Tiberius argues that our lives go well to the extent that we pursue, and fulfill or realize, our appropriate values over time. She explains what valuing is and what it is to fulfill values over time. Then she applies the value fulfillment theory to the problem of how to help others, particularly our friends. The book is written for philosophers and psychologists, and anyone with an interest in philosophical research into human well-being.
