Title: Somewhat disappointing
Review: I've read all of Yalom's books, and recommended them to doctoral students. This one I will not be recommending. It lacks Yalom's usual eloquence and creativity; worse, it is a poorly-organized summary of basic counseling approaches that folks learn in master's counseling programs. Each "chapter" is a mini-essay in which Yalom's stance is tossed out with little of the flair and wisdom we have come to expect. His suggestions for interventions supply nothing beyond his endorsement--no theory and no understanding of which kinds of clients are receptive to which techniques. I know Yalom still has a lot to offer, but it will not be found in this book.
