Rick Snyder fue un profesor internacionalmente reconocido en la intersección de la psicología clínica, social, de la personalidad y de la salud. Sus teorías exploraron cómo las personas reaccionan a la retroalimentación personal, la necesidad humana de singularidad y el impulso de excusar transgresiones. Su investigación más reciente se centró en las motivaciones de la esperanza y el perdón. Como pionero del movimiento de la psicología positiva, Snyder detalló el impacto de la esperanza en diversos ámbitos de la vida, incluyendo la salud, los niños, la espiritualidad y el trabajo.

Hope has previously been a construct more of interest to philosophy and religion than in psychology. New research has shown, however, that hope is closely related to optimism, feelings of control, and motivation toward achieving one's goals. The Handbook of Hope presents a comprehensive overview of the psychological inquiry into hope, including its measurement, its development in children, how its loss is associated with specific clinical disorders, and therapeutic approaches that can help instill hope in those who have lost theirs. A final section discusses hope in occupational how the use of hope can make one a better coach, teacher, or parent.
The book provides an in-depth exploration of positive psychology, focusing on the science behind positive emotions and human strengths. The authors introduce innovative frameworks that enhance understanding and application of these concepts, making it a valuable resource for both scholars and practitioners interested in fostering well-being and personal growth.
