Life and How to Survive It: An Entertaining and Mind-Stretching Search for What Really Matters in Life
A. C. Robin Skynner, John Cleese, Bud Handelsman“If all pop psychology–self-help books were as sprightly & insightful as this, they would corner the market. Psychiatrist Skynner & humorist Cleese of Monty Python fame . . . expand the idea of the healthy individual raised in a healthy family becoming a contributor to a healthy society. Particularly relevant is their astute analysis of our society’s attitudes toward directness, money, celebrity, & winning. The authors go on to discuss values, religion, death, & change, all with an ingratiating lack of dogmatism.” — Publishers Weekly
What makes people tick? What about families, organizations such as schools & businesses, or societies? By understanding them, can we make them tick better? Where does religion fit in? In this entertaining book, England's odd couple—psychiatrist-scholar Robin Skynner & comic John Cleese—answer these provocative questions & others, as they embark on a fascinating, mind-stretching search for what really matters in life. Cartoons throughout. Media publicity.Տարի:
