Sinossi
Un uomo che non riesce a controllare i suoi impulsi sessuali; una donna ossessionata da un amore divorante, finito ormai da otto anni; un brillante scienziato che si convince di essere un impostore; una ragazza che rivela un'insospettata doppia personalità; un uomo d'affari che non trova il coraggio di liberarsi di un pacco di lettere ingiallite... Sono i protagonisti delle storie di psicoterapia in cui Irvin Yalom ha condensato le sue esperienze e riflessioni sulle radici profonde del disagio esistenziale: pagine appassionate e brillanti, ricche di emozioni e di idee, sempre illuminate da una sorprendente sincerità. L'esperienza terapeutica vi appare come una specie di avventura, e analista e paziente sono raffigurati come compagni di viaggio: la guarigione del paziente deve indurre il terapeuta a mettere in gioco tutte le sue carte senza barare. La coinvolgente narrazione di questi incontri ci aiuta a riconoscere e a tenere a bada i nostri aspetti più oscuri: nell'intreccio di paure, ansie, solitudini e ossessioni è impossibile sentirsi soltanto un osservatore distaccato.

Recensioni
There is no adventure more exciting, nothing so wonderful and frightening, and so fraught with danger, as delving into the mind of a human being. On that point alone this book is moving and emotional and funny as few works of fiction can be. When going on such a perilous journey into the true heart
I had originally started Irvin D. Yalom's newest release Becoming Myself , where he mentioned this collection of stories which sounded more fitting because my attention span was slight at the time. Love's Executioner and Other Tales of Psychotherapy offers a keen insight on ten patients, from all walk Leggi tutto
Μετά από δύο όχι και τόσο πειστικές προσπάθειες για τα δικά μου γούστα τουλάχιστον νομίζω ότι σε τούτο δω το βιβλίο σαν να τα ξαναβρήκαμε σε μεγάλο βαθμό με τον Κύριο Γιάλομ. Μου άρεσε πολύ και νομίζω ότι μαζί με το όταν έκλαψε ο Νίτσε ο δήμιος του έρωτα είναι από τα πιο αντιπροσωπευτικά του βιβλία, Leggi tutto
Ugh, I am so disappointed. I very, very badly wanted to love this book. Staring at the Sun was revolutionary, and The Gift of Therapy unequivocally changed who I am as a mental health professional. One of Yalom's greatest assets is that he has always been very open about his flaws, judgments, and hu Leggi tutto
"From both my personal and professional experience, I had come to believe that the fear of death is always greatest in those who feel that they have not lived their life fully. A good working formula is: the more unlived life, or unrealized potential, the greater one's death anxiety." In his book Lov Leggi tutto
كانت لغة الكتاب صعبة الى حد كبير بالنسبة لي، وللأسف لم استطع العثور على نسخة مترجمة من الكتاب. أثار الكاتب اهتمامي بالحالات اللي عرضها للقارىء.كانت محاولاته للوصول الى أصل مشكلة كل حالة أشبه بلغز يحاول تلك الطبيب كشف غموضه في جلسةٍ تلو الأخرى. وكان ذلك بمثابة تجربة من التجارب القرائية المحفزة لعقلي، Leggi tutto
A friend gave me this book a few days ago. My friend is very well-educated, has lived all over the world, and has experienced more than most people. When he gave me the book, he said to me, "This book reflects my vision of the world". How could I help but be intrigued? Opening the book, he then read t Leggi tutto
