Public Sector Performance Book

Poorly written. The authors seemed to intentionally choose the most obtuse why of expressing themselves. Here is an example: "Using positive psychology and POB in general, and the four criteria-meeting psychological resources of efficacy, optimism, hope, and resiliency, in particular, as the foundation and point of departure, as indicated in the introductory comments, Luthans and colleagues have theoretically and empirically demonstrated a higher-order core construct called psychological capital or PsyCap." The authors also seem to cite their own work on every other page. Reading this for class was an altogether terrible experience, and it is a topic I would normally have very much enjoyed.
