Description:
A leader in the emerging field of therapy known as "philosophical practice", Dr. Lou Marinoff brings philosophy out of the Ivory Tower to help solve the dilemmas faced by so many people today -- handling relationships, living ethically, dealing with career change, and finding meaning in life. Plato, Not Prozac! demonstrates how the ideas of the world's most important thinkers -- from Kierkegaard's thoughts on coping with death to the I Ching's guidelines on adapting to change -- can shed light on our problems and guide us toward a solution compatible with our individual beliefs. Gone is the need for expensive therapists, medication, and lengthy analysis. Clearly organized by common problems to help readers tailor Dr. Marinoff's advice to their own needs, this is an intelligent, accessible, and persuasive prescription for self-healing therapy that is giving psychotherapy a run for its money.
