Descriere scurtă
Bestselling
writer
and
psychotherapist
Irvin
D.
Yalom
puts
himself
on
the
couch
in
a
lapidary
memoir
Irvin
D.
Yalom
has
made
a
career
of
investigating
the
lives
of
others.
In
this
profound
memoir,
he
turns
his
writing
and
his
therapeutic
eye
on
himself.
He
opens
his
story
with
a
nightmare:
He
is
twelve,
and
is
riding
his
bike
past
the
home
of
an
acne-scarred
girl.
Like
every
morning,
he
calls
out,
hoping
to
befriend
her,
"Hello
Measles!"
But
in
his
dream,
the
girl's
father
makes
Yalom
understand
that
his
daily
greeting
had
hurt
her.
For
Yalom,
this
was
the
birth
of
empathy;
he
would
not
forget
the
lesson.
AsBecoming
Myselfunfolds,
we
see
the
birth
of
the
insightful
thinker
whose
books
have
been
a
beacon
to
so
many.
This
is
not
simply
a
man's
life
story,
Yalom's
reflections
on
his
life
and
development
are
an
invitation
for
us
to
reflect
on
the
origins
of
our
own
selves
and
the
meanings
of
our
lives.

Recenzii
One
of
theGuardian's
best
books
of
2017
"When Yalom publishes something--anything--I buy it, and he never disappoints. He's an amazing storyteller, a gorgeous writer, a great, generous, compassionate thinker, and--quite rightly--one of the world's most influential mental healthcare practitioners."—Nicola Barker,Guardian
"Fans of this eloquent and introspective author will welcome this innermost chronicle of his history, passions, and the keys to unlocking a fruitful life."—Kirkus Reviews
"Part memoir, part diary, and part teaching tool, Yalom's autobiography is revealing, inspiring, and moving. It is well written and well organized....Yalom's warm personality permeates the pages...[a] delightful memoir."—Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy
"In 40 chapters, from 'The Birth of Empathy' to 'A Novice at Growing Old,' the author writes with authority, energy, and humility.... An honest, engaging, and rewarding autobiography. For Yalom's admirers and those interested in the philosophy of psychology and memoirs."—Library Journal, starred review
"Wise and warm, this memoir recounts a life well lived."—Campus Circle
"Becoming Myselfoffers a rich exploration of some of the author's favorite themes with a rare honesty, openness and generosity... But it is in the way Yalom weaves together insights and recommendations about therapeutic praxis that he is most compelling. His ideas about therapy and technique build upon a child-like curiosity and unquenchable thirst for learning about the human condition. The medium for delivery is Yalom's brilliant story-telling...and the result is a treasure trove of gems about how we can best create the kind of connection and impact that foster satisfaction and success for our patients, as well as for ourselves."—American Journal of Psychoanalysis
"I've always wondered, as any reader would wonder, about the author, about the balance between the professional and the personal and how out of that alchemy the writing emerged. Finally, inBecoming Myself, we have the answer, and it is wonderful, compelling, and as insightful about its subject and about the times he lived in as you could hope for. A fabulous read."—Abraham Verghese, author ofCutting for Stone
"Near the end ofBecoming Myself, Irvin Yalom claims to be 'a novice at growing old'--to which I say, 'Oh, please!--you're as good at it as you have been at everything else.' This is a candid, insightful memoir by one of the world's most important and accomplished experts on the human soul."—Daniel Menaker, author ofThe TreatmentandMy Mistake: A Memoir
"Irv Yalom is the psychiatrist who thinks like a philosopher and writes like the fine novelist he also happens to be.Becoming Myselfdelivers not only the engrossing story of one exceptional individual's life. It shines with revelations regarding life as it ought to be lived."—Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author ofPlato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won't Go Away
"I loved readingBecoming Myself, having been a huge fan of Irvin D. Yalom for many years. This is the book we've been waiting for from him, his own deep journey into the self.... This is a book to read and reread for years to come, a memorable journey through Yalom's time and ours."—Jay Parini, author ofThe Last StationandNew and Collected Poems: 1975-2015

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Irvin D. Yalom has made a career of investigating the lives of others. In Becoming Myself, his long-awaited memoir, he turns his therapeutic eye on himself, delving into the relationships that shaped him and the groundbreaking work that made him famous.
The first-generation child of immigrant Russian Jews, Yalom grew up in a lower-class neighbourhood in Washington DC. Determined to escape its confines, he set his sights on becoming a doctor. An incredible ascent followed: we witness his start at Stanford Medical School amid the cultural upheavals of the 1960s, his turn to writing fiction as a means of furthering his exploration of the human psyche and his rise to international prominence.
Yalom recounts his revolutionary work in group psychotherapy and how he became the foremost practitioner of existential psychotherapy, a method that draws on the wisdom of great thinkers over the ages. He reveals the inspiration for his many seminal books, including Love's Executioner and When Nietzche Wept, which meld psychology and philosophy to arrive at arresting new insights into the human condition. Interweaving the stories of his most memorable patients with personal tales of love and regret, Becoming Myself brings readers close to Yalom's therapeutic technique, his writing process and his family life.
In this, his final work, Yalom finds wisdom in a line from Charles Dickens: 'For, as I draw closer and closer to the end, I travel in the circle nearer and nearer to the beginning'. Following Yalom back to his beginnings is an invitation to travel nearer to our own, and the opportunity will stand as one of his most profound gifts.
