Book Overview

The classic book of therapy, one of the best self-help books ever written (Albert Ellis, Ph.D.), available for the first time in trade paperback. Based on the two significant assumptions that assertiveness is crucial in interpersonal relationships and that we are not victims of circumstance, but that the locus of control is in ourselves, this work shows how to change your thinking and your behavior.

The best!

This is a gem that went out of print. It's my absolute favorite self help book. Its an easy read and impossible to not provide any reader some true insights. By any measure its great. That is when compared to most psych books its better and cheaper. When compared to therapy, at a cost of five minutes with a shrink this will give you more knowledge than five years of psych-talk. And even when compared with the cost of Zoloft its a steal. No kidding, its the only thing costing under $50.00 that ever even began to change my life. I love this book! If you can't afford it get it from the library...or get a job and buy it.

Life changing, myth changing

Most of us have a life filled with myths (e.g. its important to be right, other people are happy, don't hide your anger). This book takes on some of the most common myths...and provides another way to look at them. Its written by two of the most famous living therapists... a psychologist and psychiatrist who are both masters. Its easy to read and truly life changing. There aren't many books I can say that about. The book was a best seller in an earlier edition (in the 1980s) and went out of print. I assume this new publisher bought the rights. I'm really happy its back in print. Its a classic.This has long been one of my favorite books. Do not miss it!
