Reviews
"Yalom writes with the narrative wit of O. Henry and the earthy humor of Isaac Bashevis Singer." -- San Francisco Chronicle "[Yalom's] wise ideas are perfectly accessible." -- Publishers Weekly "Certainly helpful to therapists and patients, may also help any thoughtful person seeking to improve relationships with others and self-understanding." -- Booklist "For both the professional and the lay reader....In 85 short chapters, [Yalom] presents little pearls of ideas shaped from 35 years in practice....Yalom's latest is essential." -- Library Journal "I admired especially the humanity and humility which shine through this book....I would recommend this book to anyone but especially to those open to learning with the heart as well as the head." -- E. Thomas Dowd, The Counseling Psychology Quarterly "An absorbing guide" -- Boston Globe "Very much forward looking--a call to arms for the couch. . . . I'm struck by the man's unerring sense of humanity. . . . [Yalom is] a wizard, for whom no curtain is left drawn." -- Metro Times (Detroit)

Excellent writer
I'll read this book again. As a 60 year old therapist who has lost his way more than once, it's like a warm fire on a cold, wet day. Lots of useful and just plain comforting knowledge/advice communicated in an easy, friendly way. Also, I think this is an important book for younger therapists to read... it'll help you keep the managed care pressure in perspective. Thanks Irv.
