The revolutionary book that showed how mindfulness can be applied to every aspect of our lives.

"The concept of 'mindfulness' has skyrocketed in popularity among enlightened people, and that boost can be attributed to the groundbreaking research and book by one of the most creative psychologists alive, Ellen Langer." -- New York Times-bestselling author Steven Pinker

The highly innovative findings of social psychologist Dr. Ellen J. Langer and her team of researchers at Harvard introduced a unique concept of mindfulness, adapted to contemporary life in the West. Langer's theory has been applied to a wide number of fields, including health, business, aging, social justice, and learning. The Langer Mindfulness Scale is a psychological assessment based on her work.

In her introduction to this 25th anniversary edition, Dr. Langer (now known as "the Mother of Mindfulness") outlines some of these exciting applications and suggests those still to come.
