Rare book: Price in USD

¿Qué hacer cuando se recibe un diagnóstico mortal? Esta es la pregunta que enfrenta el exitoso psicoanalista Julius Hertzfeldt tras un chequeo rutinario con su médico. Durante años, ha ayudado a otros a confrontar la finitud de la vida, pero ahora debe lidiar con su propia mortalidad. Se cuestiona si su trabajo ha tenido un verdadero significado y reflexiona sobre aquellos pacientes en los que ha fracasado, especialmente un caso que lo atormenta: un hombre que trató durante tres años por su adicción sexual sin éxito. Al reencontrarse con Philip Slate, su antiguo paciente, Hertzfeldt descubre que Slate afirma haberse curado a sí mismo gracias a la lectura de Arthur Schopenhauer y ahora actúa como un tipo de consejero filosófico. Slate desea obtener una licencia como terapeuta y busca a Hertzfeldt como supervisor, quien se siente atónito al ver que su antiguo paciente sigue siendo el mismo hombre arrogante y egocéntrico de antes. Finalmente, Hertzfeldt acepta bajo la condición de que Slate asista a su grupo de terapia.

The noted Stanford University psychiatrist distills the essence of a wide range of therapies into a masterful, creative synthesis, opening up a new way of understanding each person's confrontation with four ultimate concerns: isolation, meaninglessness, death, and freedom.

Tells the story of the seventeenth-century thinker Baruch Spinoza, his philosophy and subsequent excommunication from the Jewish community, and his apparent influence on the Nazi ideologue Alfred Rosenberg, whose einsatzgruppe was dispatched during the Second world war to investigate a mysterious "Spinoza Problem".

"A co-written project by Irvin and Marilyn Yalom, which describes their heartbreaking journey as a couple married 65 years facing the end of their long partnership. A longtime teacher and therapist on the subject of death anxiety, Dr. Yalom now confronts the loss of his wife and his own mortality. This book will offer wisdom from one of the foremost existential psychiatrists and illuminate the importance of relationships-friendship, family, and romantic-as we all age"--

At sixteen, Alfred Rosenberg faces punishment for anti-Semitic remarks during a school speech, leading him to memorize passages about Spinoza from Goethe's autobiography. He is shocked to learn that his idol, Goethe, admired the Jewish philosopher Baruch Spinoza, which creates a profound internal conflict for Rosenberg. He grapples with the "Spinoza problem": how could a genius like Goethe be inspired by someone from a race he deems inferior and seeks to annihilate? Spinoza himself faced severe consequences for his beliefs, being excommunicated from the Amsterdam Jewish community at just twenty-four, leading a life of isolation while producing influential works. As Rosenberg ascends to become a prominent Nazi ideologue and a key architect of the Third Reich's racial policies, his obsession with Spinoza persists. The narrative imagines the unlikely intersection of their lives, with internationally bestselling novelist Irvin D. Yalom delving into the psyches of these two men, one a saintly secular thinker and the other a godless mass murderer, separated by three centuries yet connected by their complex legacies.

From one of the most celebrated and highly respected authorities in the field of psychotherapy comes a collection of his best works. In this anthology of Yalom's most influential work to date, readers experience the diversity of his writings, with pieces that range from the highly concrete and clinical to the abstract and theoretical.

Acclaimed author and renowned psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom distills thirty-five years of psychotherapy wisdom into one brilliant volume. The culmination of master psychiatrist Dr. Irvin D. Yalom's more than thirty-five years in clinical practice, The Gift of Therapy is a remarkable and essential guidebook that illustrates through real case studies how patients and therapists alike can get the most out of therapy. The bestselling author of Love's Executioner shares his uniquely fresh approach and the valuable insights he has gained-presented as eighty-five personal and provocative 'tips for beginner therapists', including: *Let the patient matter to you *Acknowledge your errors *Create a new therapy for each patient *Do home visits *(Almost) never make decisions for the patient *Freud was not always wrong A book aimed at enriching the therapeutic process for a new generation of patients and counsellors, Yalom's Gift of Therapy is an entertaining, informative, and insightful read for anyone with an interest in the subject.

Why was Saul tormented by three unopened letters from Stockholm? What made Thelma spend her whole life raking over a long-past love affair? How did Carlos' macho fantasies help him deal with terminal cancer? In Love's Executioner psychotherapist Irvin Yalom gives detailed and deeply affecting accounts of his work with these and seven other patients. Their case histories lay bare human anxieties - isolation, fear of death or freedom, a sense of the meaninglessness of life - that few of us escape completely, and show how we can all come to terms with such fears. Throughout, Dr Yalom remains refreshingly frank about his own errors and prejudices; his book provides a rare glimpse into the consulting room of a master therapist. 'The best therapists are at least partly poets. With this riveting and beautifully written book, Yalom has joined their ranks.' Erica Jong 'Dr Yalom offers a vaulable insight into the delicate process of therapy.' Sunday Telegraph 'These remarkably moving and instructive tales of the psychiatric encounter bring the reader into novel territories of the mind - and the landscape is truly unforgettable.' Maggie Scarf 'Irvin Yalom writes like an angel about the devils that besiege us.' Rollo May 'Dr Yalom is unusually honest, both with his patients and about himself.' Anthony Storr

Written in Irv Yalom's inimitable story-telling style, Staring at the Sun is a profoundly encouraging approach to the universal issue of mortality. In this magisterial opus, capping a lifetime of work and personal experience, Dr. Yalom helps us recognize that the fear of death is at the heart of much of our anxiety. Such recognition is often catalyzed by an "awakening experience"—a dream, or loss (the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job or home), illness, trauma, or aging. Once we confront our own mortality, Dr. Yalom writes, we are inspired to rearrange our priorities, communicate more deeply with those we love, appreciate more keenly the beauty of life, and increase our willingness to take the risks necessary for personal fulfillment.

The classic work on group psychotherapy Hailed by Jerome Frank as "the best book that exists on the subject," Irvin D. Yalom's The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy has been the standard text in the field for decades. In this completely revised and updated fifth edition, Dr. Yalom and his collaborator Dr. Molyn Leszcz expand the book to include the most recent developments in the field, drawing on nearly a decade of new research as well as their broad clinical wisdom and expertise. New topics include: online therapy, specialized groups, ethnocultural diversity, trauma and managed care. At once scholarly and lively, this is the most up-to-date, incisive, and comprehensive text available on group psychotherapy.

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. As Becoming Myself unfolds, 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.

"Yalom describes his patients' struggles-- as well as his own-- to come to terms with the two great challenges of existence: how to have a meaningful life, and how to reckon with its inevitable end"--Dust jacket flap.

Suddenly confronted with his own mortality after a routine checkup, eminent psychotherapist Julius Hertzfeld is forced to reexamine his life and work -- and seeks out Philip Slate, a sex addict whom he failed to help some twenty years earlier. Yet Philip claims to be cured -- miraculously transformed by the pessimistic teachings of German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer -- and is, himself, a philosophical counselor in training. Philips dour, misanthropic stance compels Julius to invite Philip to join his intensive therapy group in exchange for tutoring on Schopenhauer. But with mere months left, life may be far too short to help Philip or to compete with him for the hearts and minds of the group members. And then again, it might be just long enough.

From the bestselling author of Love's Executioner and When Nietzsche Wept comes a provocative exploration of the unusual relationships three therapists form with their patients. Seymour is a therapist of the old school who blurs the boundary of sexual propriety with one of his clients. Marshal, who is haunted by his own obsessive-compulsive behaviors, is troubled by the role money plays in his dealings with his patients. Finally, there is Ernest Lash. Driven by his sincere desire to help and his faith in psychoanalysis, he invents a radically new approach to therapy -- a totally open and honest relationship with a patient that threatens to have devastating results.Exposing the many lies that are told on and off the psychoanalyst's couch, Lying on the Couch gives readers a tantalizing, almost illicit, glimpse at what their therapists might really be thinking during their sessions. Fascinating, engrossing and relentlessly intelligent, it ultimately moves readers with a denouncment of surprising humanity and redemptive faith.

The many thousands of readers of the best-selling Love's Executioner will welcome this paperback edition of an earlier work by Dr. Irvin Yalom, written with Ginny Elkin, a pseudonymous patient whom he treated -- the first book to share the dual reflections of psychiatrist and patient. Ginny Elkin was a troubled young and talented writer whom the psychiatric world had labeled as "schizoid." After trying a variety of therapies, she entered into private treatment with Dr. Irvin Yalom at Stanford University. As part of their work together, they agreed to write separate journals of each of their sessions. Every Day Gets a Little Closer is the product of that arrangement, in which they alternately relate their descriptions and feelings about their therapeutic relationship.

Insightful and compelling, this book offers a deep exploration of its subject and the historical context of the times. Praised for its engaging narrative, it promises a fabulous reading experience that captivates and informs, making it a noteworthy addition to any literary collection.

Dožiť sa deväťdesiatky je krásne, ale zároveň musíte čeliť nový výzvam – vaše vlastné telo už úplne neposlúcha a čosi podobné platí aj o mysli. Irvin Yalom vo svojej novej knihe opisuje stretnutia s pacientmi, ktoré kvôli výpadkom pamäti musel obmedziť na jednorazové hodinové konzultácie, niečo, čo bolo v zdanlivom rozpore s celou jeho dovtedajšou praxou. Dokážete niekomu pomôcť za hodinu a je šanca, že sa v takom krátkom čase ľudsky zblížite? Revolučná prax zameraná na ešte väčší dôraz využívania jeho prístupu „tu a teraz“ priniesla svoje plody. Obľúbený terapeut-veterán zistil, že sa môže s novými pacientmi dostať čoraz hlbšie, a to v skrátenom čase, bez nárazníka budúcich stretnutí. V knihe opisuje niektoré z týchto intenzívnych konzultácií, ktoré zmenili jeho život, a skúma množstvo ľudských ťažkostí, ako aj svoj vlastný vývoj na konci kariéry terapeuta. Ukazuje, ako ochota terapeuta byť otvorený pomáha pacientovi poľaviť vo vlastnej ostražitosti, čo vedie k hlbšiemu a bezprostrednejšiemu spojeniu. Pre Yaloma táto otvorenosť znamenala, že si dovolil odhaliť detaily zo svojho osobného života, od detstva vo Washingtone s rodičmi prisťahovalcami až po nedávnu smrť manželky a otázky o pôsobení psychoterapie v našom živote.

Im vorliegenden Buch, das erstmals auf Deutsch erscheint, beleuchtet Yalom alle wesentlichen Aspekte der Gruppenpsychotherapie: Wie muss sie beschaffen sein, damit sie funktioniert? Welchen Prinzipien sollte sie folgen? Welcher Art sind die Unterschiede zwischen stationärer und ambulanter Betreuung? Wie könnte ein Modell erfolgreicher Arbeit mit Gruppen aussehen? Ein Buch für die Fachwelt wie den interessierten Laien gleichermaßen.

Yaloma k psychiatrii, jeho akcenty v chápání lidského bytí, psychiky a přístupu k psychickému utrpení člověka. Představuje také I. D.

Geschenkausgabe im kleinen Format, bedrucktes Ganzleinen mit Lesebändchen. Irvin D. Yalom erzählt in »Ein menschliches Herz« die Geschichte seines guten Freundes Bob Berger, der seit seiner Kindheit während des Holocaust in Ungarn, zwei Leben führte: eines tagsüber als engagierter und exzellenter Herzchirurg – und ein nächtliches, in dem Bruchstücke entsetzlicher Erinnerungen durch seine Träume geisterten. Jahrzehntelang verdrängte Berger durch unermüdlichen Arbeitseifer seine schrecklichen Erlebnisse, bis sie sich während einer nicht ungefährlichen medizinwissenschaftlichen Reise nach Venezuela wieder Bahn brachen …

Co když máte na terapeutický rozhovor právě jen tu jednu hodinu? Nic víc, nic delšího, žádné pokračování? Může se během jedné hodiny člověk skutečně otevřít? A co terapeut, pojme během omezeného času to, co mu chce klient sdělit, a dospějí spolu k nějakému závěru? Kniha slavného psychologa a spisovatele nabízí příběhy, které se odehrály během jediného hodinového sezení, jež navíc proběhlo online. Mezi jeho klienty se objevují lidé z celého světa a během intenzivních hodin, kdy občas obě strany zápasí s připojením nebo nastavením mikrofonu, se odehrávají intimní a velmi osobní setkání. Irvin Yalom už totiž ve svém věku nemá co ztratit, a tak se jako jeho románový terapeut Ernest ze Lží na pohovce rozhodl pro upřímnou terapii. Nebude se před klienty schovávat, řekne jim o sobě i věci, které by jinak možná tajil. To jim pomůže otevřít během jedné jediné hodiny celé jejich srdce.
