Author Information

MELANIE MUNROE recently received her PhD from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto for her thesis on wisdom and adversity. Melanie’s research focuses on how individuals cope with traumatic events and how to improve long-term outcomes and well-being in trauma survivors.  MICHEL FERRARI is a professor in the Department of Applied Psychology and Human Development at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) of the University of Toronto.  He leads the Wisdom and Identity Lab, which explores understandings and teaching of personal wisdom in people of different ages (from children to the elderly) in different countries around the world. He has edited or co-edited 11 books, most recently Child and Adolescent Resilience within Medical Contexts (Springer, 2016, with Carrie DeMichelis). He is currently leading a study of how wise life management can help Muslim immigrants and refugees acculturate more easily life into Toronto; in applied practice, he and his students are studying the experience of wisdom and personal identity in marginalized populations, such as those diagnosed with autism.
