An invaluable compilation of the key works by eminent psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom, including personal essays on writing and the art of psychotherapy. In both his nonfiction and his fiction, Irvin Yalom uses the lens of psychotherapy to explore human nature and shows us that the line between the true and the imagined is not always easy to distinguish. What has driven Dr. Yalom from the beginning of his career is a powerful interest in narrative, a theme that suffuses this anthology of his most influential work. Showcasing Dr. Yalom's writing in all of its diversity, its contents range from illustrative case studies, to theoretical models, and, of course, to literature. Included are carefully edited selections from Dr. Yalom's masterful writings on group and existential therapy as well as excerpts from Love's Executioner , When Nietzsche Wept , and Lying on the Couch . Readers of Dr. Yalom's clinical texts will be intrigued by the fictional works; general readers will gain a greater understanding of and appreciation for the practice of psychotherapy. All will find the mark of a master.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 475-491) and index.

Irvin D. Yalom was born in Washington, D.C. on June 13, 1931, of parents who immigrated from Russia shortly after World War I. Yalom entered into medical school intent on studying the field of psychiatry. His first writings were scientific contributions to professional journals. His first book, "The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy" was widely used as a text for training therapists. It has been translated into twelve languages and spawned four editions."Existential Psychotherapy" followed, which was a textbook for a course that did not exist at the time, and then "Inpatient Group Psychotherapy," a guide to leading groups in the inpatient psychiatric ward. In an effort to teach aspects of Existential Therapy, Yalom turned to a literary conveyance and wrote a book of therapy tales called "Love's Executioner", two teaching novels, "When Nietzsche Wept" and "Lying on the Couch" and, "Momma and the Meaning of Life," a collection of true and fictionalized tales of therapy.
These books went on to be best sellers, and "When Nietzsche Wept" won the Commonwealth Gold Medal for best fiction of 1993. They have been widely translated,each into about fifteen to twenty languages, and have had considerable distribution abroad.
