Building on earlier work that contrasted well-being with living a good life from an individual perspective, the book shifts attention toward assessing others’ well-being while preserving the closeness between a person and their own well-being. The author integrates insights from philosophers and psychologists while emphasizing a theoretical approach informed by empirical research, and highlights how friends can cultivate qualities that make mutual help possible.","Well-Being as Value Fulfillment  \nWell-Being as  \nValue Fulfillment How We Can Help Each Other to Live Well  \nValerie Tiberius  \n1  \n3  \nGreat Clarendon Street, Oxford, OX2 6DP, United Kingdom  \nOxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford.

I started to want to write this book when I realized that my last book (The Reflective Life) was not exactly about well-being, even though that’s what I thought it would be about when I started writing it. In that book I ended up distinguishing the topic of well-being from my topic there: what it is to live a good life from your own point of view. I am now extending some ofthe ideas that I developed in previous work to the topic of well-being. In order to do this, I have had to move away from the first person point of view and talk about how we assess the well-being of others. My aim here has been to do this without sacrificing the intimate relationship between well-being and the person whose well-being it is. This new focus has allowed me to move from questions about how to live one’s own life to questions about how to help other people. How friends can help each other and what kinds of qualities it makes sense for friends to cultivate in order to be helpful are topics that I take up in the second half of the book.  \nMy thinking about the topic of well-being has been greatly influenced by the work of psychologists on well-being and happiness. I appreciate this work and the contribution these researchers are making to the field and to society. I firmly believe that questions about the nature of well-being and how to improve people’s lives are questions that can only be answered by putting together the contributions from different fields. For these reasons, I did not write this book only for philosophers; rather, I set out to write a book that has something to say to psychologists and philosophers. Indeed, I hope that any person with an interest in the topic will be able to get something out of the book, but that may represent too much optimism about my skills as a writer.  \nWriting for a broader audience (or at least attempting to) may result in a final product that disappoints everyone in different ways.  \nviii PREFACE  \nThere is a lot less discussion of the literature and of particular objections than philosophers will expect, and not much engagement with the method of counter-exampling beloved by
