Title: Disappointing
Review: I had high hopes for this book as I thought it would address spirituality in a humanistic way. At first, I thought I agreed with the 'accepting of self' philosophy, but gradually statements made by the author just didn't ring true. I kept on thinking that maybe I was resistant to the reevaluation of my own thought processes, but gave up when the author spoke of a patient who found out her husband was cheating on her and the author's response was that she had control issues (!?!) and was acting like a victim. I think at that moment, perhaps she feeling victimized. But instead of telling her to 'embrace her victim', she is a control freak. Then he presents depression like it is some kind of choice, instead of a chemical imbalance. Perhaps depression can spawn creativity, but you have to be able to get out of bed first -- and that is a problem. I gave up on the book after that.
