Yalom faces his own fear of death and examines its role in many patients'' fears, stresses and depression. With characteristic wisdom and illuminating case histories, he shows how confronting and coping with death allows us to live in a richer, more compassionate way.

Hour of the Heart - Irvin D. Yalom, Benjamin Yalom
A deeply moving and revealing chronicle, from one of the most prominent psychotherapists of our time, of working under wholly new circumstances, and the challenges and breakthroughs he''s made as he takes on patients for one hour, one time only.Facing memory loss at age 93, as well as the fallout from a pandemic that moved much of daily life online, legendary psychotherapist and bestselling author Irvin Yalom was forced to vastly reconsider the shape of his sessions with patients. But rather than throw in the towel in the face of change, Dr Yalom considered the limitations imposed by these new realities head on, and revolutionized his practice. Dr Yalom wondered if perhaps his own practice could focus deeply on the work that could be achieved in a one-hour, one-time meeting between patient and practitioner-employing an even more concerted use of his "here and now" approach. As he began these one-time sessions, the beloved veteran therapist found himself freed to reach ever deeper places with new patients on a shortened timeline, without the buffer of future appointments.In HOUR OF THE HEART, Yalom recounts some of these intense, life-changing consultations, exploring an array of human predicaments, and his own late-career development as ...

After the Exhibition - Dolores Gordon-Smith
A church art exhibition turns deadly . . .''Art, my dear boy,'' said Mr Askern, ''especially sacred art, needs tradition. Tradition is the bedrock of our art . . .''He broke off, staring at the woman in front of him. Her face seemed to lose all definition and her skin turned an unnatural shade of putty-coloured grey. ''Art,'' she said, her voice scarcely more than a whisper. ''Art! Oh my God, art!''She swayed dangerously. Jack leapt forward, catching her as she fell.Jack Haldean expected Lythewell and Askerns'' exhibition of church art in Lyon House, London, to be a sedate affair. After all, Lythewell and Askern, Church Artists, were a respectable, old-fashioned firm, the last people to be associated with mystery, violence and sudden death.

Love's Executioner - Irvin D. Yalom
Love''s Executioner offers us the humane and extraordinary insight of renowned psychiatrist Irvin D. Yalom into the lives of ten of his patients - and through them into the minds of us allWhy was Saul tormented by three unopened letters from Stockholm? What made Thelma spend her whole life raking over a long-past love affair? How did Carlos''s macho fantasies help him deal with terminal cancer?In this engrossing book, Irvin Yalom gives detailed and deeply affecting accounts of his work with these and seven other patients. Deep down, all of them were suffering from the basic human anxieties - isolation, fear of death or freedom, a sense of the meaninglessness of life - that none of us can escape completely. And yet, as the case histories make touchingly clear, it is only by facing such anxieties head on that we can hope to come to terms with them and develop. Throughout, Dr Jalom remains refreshingly frank about his own errors and prejudices; his book provides a rare glimpse into the consulting room of a master therapist.''Dr Yalom demonstrates once again that in the right hands, the stuff of therapy has the interest of the richest and most inventive fiction'' Eva ...

Hour of the Heart - Irvin Yalom
One of the most prominent psychotherapists of our time offers a deeply moving chronicle of the challenges and breakthroughs that come from a wholly new practice of one-time-only therapy sessions. Facing memory loss at age ninety-three as well as the fallout from a global pandemic that moved much of daily life online, legendary psychotherapist and bestselling author Irvin D. Yalom was forced to revolutionise his practice.Rather than rail against these changes, Dr Yalom turned his focus to what might be achieved between patient and practitioner in just a one-hour, one-time-only meeting. In Hour of the Heart, Yalom recounts some of these intense, life-changing sessions, exploring an array of human predicaments and his own late-career development as a therapist. In recounting these consultations, he shows how a therapist's willingness to be open helps patients let down their own guards, leading to a deeper and more immediate connection - one necessary to achieving profound realisations in just sixty minutes.Written in collaboration with his son, Hour of the Heart shows us how to relate to each other, with more honesty and vulnerability. That hour of connection helped to sustain both patient and therapist, and enriched Yalom's vision of what psychotherapy can do.

The Spinoza Problem - Irvin Yalom
When sixteen-year-old Alfred Rosenberg is called into his headmaster’s office for anti-Semitic remarks he made during a school speech, he is forced, as punishment, to memorize passages about Spinoza from the autobiography of the German poet Goethe. Rosenberg is stunned to discover that Goethe, his idol, was a great admirer of the Jewish seventeenth-century philosopher Baruch Spinoza. Long after graduation, Rosenberg remains haunted by this “Spinoza problem”: how could the German genius Goethe have been inspired by a member of a race Rosenberg considers so inferior to his own, a race he was determined to destroy?Spinoza himself was no stranger to punishment during his lifetime. Because of his unorthodox religious views, he was excommunicated from the Amsterdam Jewish community in 1656, at the age of twenty-four, and banished from the only world he had ever known. Though his life was short and he lived without means in great isolation, he nonetheless produced works that changed the course of history. Over the years, Rosenberg rose through the ranks to become an outspoken Nazi ideologue, a faithful servant of Hitler, and the main author of racial policy for the Third Reich. Still, his Spinoza obsession lingered.By imagining the unexpected intersection of Spinoza’s ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Teorie a praxe skupinové psychoterapie - Irvin D. Yalom, Leszcz, Molyn
Skupinová a individuální psychoterapie jsou rovnocennými metodami, mají stejnou účinnost, každý z obou přístupů k terapeutické práci má však své zásady a je vhodný pro jiný typ klientů. Každý z přístupů může mít také vliv na jiné proměnné a většinou má odlišné výsledky. Irvin D. Yalom, mezinárodně uznávaný dynamicky orientovaný psychoterapeut a psychiatr s dlouholetou praxí a zároveň světoznámý spisovatel, v této knize spojuje obojí. Velmi podrobně popisuje způsoby práce se skupinou i úskalí, která taková práce má, její omezení i účinné faktory. Vychází nejen ze svých dlouholetých zkušeností a zkušeností svých kolegů, ale také z výzkumů. Teoretická pojednání často prokládá kazuistikami, které činí text čtivějším, a problém vysvětluje na konkrétních případech z praxe. Teorie a praxe skupinové psychoterapie je základní učebnicí a příručkou pro všechny terapeuty a poradce pracující se skupinou, bez ohledu na to, jaký terapeutický směr zastávají.Irvin D.

O smrti a životě - Marilyn Yalomová, Irvin D. Yalom
Světoznámý psychiatr a autor Irvin Yalom věnoval svou kariéru práci s lidmi, kteří se potýkají s úzkostí a zármutkem. Sám ovšem úzkosti a zármutku začal čelit až ve chvíli, kdy jeho milovaná žena Marilyn onemocněla rakovinou. V této knize se potkávají cesty obou z nich. Marilyn odešla v pokoji, Irvin se učí žít bez ní.V prvních měsících po diagnóze společně psali o tom, jaké to je, čelit vlastní smrtelnosti a zvládat to, že ztratí někoho, koho milujeme. Jejich společný život byl skutečně požehnaný, obklopený milující rodinou a nádhernou přírodou Palo Alta, naplněný společnou láskou, ale stejně jako my museli čelit nevyhnutelnému v podobě smrti. Společně psali o intimitě, lásce a zármutku. Když Marilyn odešla, Irvin i jejich děti společně oslavili její život a v závěrečné části knihy Irvin velmi upřímně píše o věcech, které přišly s čerstvým vdovstvím. O touze po intimitě, která se s Marilyiným odchodem vytratila, o tom, jaké to je být po tak dlouhých společných letech sám, o vděčnosti za to, co spolu se svou milovanou ženou prožil. O tom, že smysl života není v našich úspěších, v naplnění někdy nereálných představ, ale v hlubokých vztazích, které společně pěstujeme.

Léčba Schopenhauerem - Irvin D. Yalom
V době, kdy konfrontace s tématem smrti přiměje významného psychiatra Hertzfelda zamýšlet se nad smyslem svého životního povolání, naváže znovu kontakt s Philipem, atraktivním a arogantním člověkem závislým na sexu, kterého léčil před patnácti lety. Filozof Philip nyní studuje, aby se stal sám terapeutem. Hertzfeld mu má poskytnout supervizní hodiny potřebné k dosažení titulu - ovšem pouze za předpokladu, že se Philip nejprve zúčastní Hertzfeldovy skupinové terapie, během níž by pracoval na svých vztazích. Shodou okolností se však ukáže, že Pam, další členka terapeutické skupiny, je jednou z Philipových obětí před mnoha lety - a dodnes je touto zkušeností traumatizovaná. Konfrontace s touto situací z minulosti přivede členy terapeutické skupiny k nečekané účasti a k nebývalým změnám v jejich životě…Yalom zde rozehrává skutečný příběh ze života filozofa Artura Schopenhauera (který je Philipovým osobním guru, alter ego a inspirací) do podoby čtivého románu, spojujícího pohled do prostředí skupinové terapie s vlivem Schopenhauerových myšlenek na současnou filozofii.

Irvin D. Yalom celý svůj profesní život strávil zkoumáním života druhých lidí. Ve svých vzpomínkách obrací své terapeutické oko na sebe samého. Svůj příběh začíná jednou noční můrou: Je mu dvanáct a jede na kole podél domu, kde bydlí dívka s výrazným akné. Tak jako každé ráno na ni ve snaze se s ní skamarádit volá: „Ahoj, Vosypko!“ Ale dívčin otec mu ve snu vysvětluje, že tenhle pozdrav dívku zraňuje. V Yalomovi se tehdy zrodila empatie. Tato kniha není pouhým popisem jednoho života. Yalom se v ní vrací ke svým klientům a ke knihám, které napsal. Důležité jsou ale hlavně vztahy, které prožil a prožívá. Mluví v ní o své ženě, s níž se seznámil díky tomu, že ho jeho kamarád vtáhl do okna domu, kde se konala party její rodiny, a s níž žije více než 65 let. Vrací se k různým cestám, které se svou ženou uskutečnil, ať už to byly líbánky, na kterých si půjčili starou Vespu a projeli Francii, nebo cesta na Bali, kterou oslavili, že jejich nejmladší dítě odešlo z domu.

Když Nietzsche plakal - Irvin D. Yalom - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Strhující drama o lásce, nenávisti a vůli. Jeden z bestselerových románů prominentního amerického psychoterapeuta nás přivádí do Vídně 19. století, do kolébky psychoanalýzy. Hlavními protagonisty fiktivního příběhu jsou filozof Friedrich Nietzsche a psycholog, jeden z předchůdců psychoanalýzy, psycholog Josef Breuer. Nietzsche přichází kvůli svým sebevražedným tendencím k Breuerovi, aby se u něho léčil. Na pozadí jejich vztahu, tedy vztahu mezi jedním z největších evropských filozofů a nadaným terapeutem, dochází k setkání světů filozofie a psychologie. V příběhu se objeví také mladý, začínající lékař Sigmund Freud… Když Nietzsche plakal je příběhem o romantické posedlosti, o zachraňující moci přátelství, o úkolu odborníka pohlédnout do tváře vlastnímu démonu, a tak nalézt schopnost pomoci svému klientovi. Kniha je mistrovskou směsicí fakt a fikce. Ve skutečnosti se Friedrich Nietzsche a Josef Breuer nikdy nesetkali. A psychoterapie samozřejmě nevznikla jako výsledek jejich setkání. Nicméně životní situace hlavních postav je založena na reálných faktech a základní prvky románu – Breuerovo duševní trápení, Nietzscheho zoufalství, Anna O., Lou Salomé, Freudovo přátelství s Breuerem, tepající zárodek psychoanalýzy – měly své historické místo ve Vídni roku 1882.

When Nietzsche Wept - Irvin D. Yalom
From the acclaimed author of Love''s Executioner and Schopenhauer’s Couch, comes a “fascinating…shrewd intellectual thriller” (Los Angeles Times Book Review) about pioneering Viennese psychoanalyst Josef Breuer and his intriguing patient—Friedrich NietzscheIn nineteenth-century Vienna, a drama of love, fate, and will is played out amid the intellectual ferment that defined the era. Josef Breuer, one of the founding fathers of psychoanalysis, is at the height of his career. Friedrich Nietzsche, Europe''s greatest philosopher, is on the brink of suicidal despair, unable to find a cure for the headaches and other ailments that plague him. When he agrees to treat Nietzsche with his experimental “talking cure,” Breuer never expects that he too will find solace in their sessions. Only through facing his own inner demons can the gifted healer begin to help his patient. In When Nietzsche Wept, Irvin Yalom blends fact and fiction, atmosphere and suspense, to unfold an unforgettable story about the redemptive power of friendship.

The Smythes - R. Kikuo Johnson, Rea Irvin
A CLASSIC 1930s COMIC STRIP: The New Yorker’s first art editor satirizes the petit bourgeoisie in these stylishly eccentric cartoons with echoes of Cheever and Wodehouse.Rea Irvin was The New Yorker’s first art editor and creator of the magazine’s iconic mascot, the butterfly enthusiast Eustace Tilly. In 1930, he ventured into new territory with the comic strip The Smythes. The Smythes—comprised of John, Margie, and their two forgettable children, Willie and Maudie—are a niceish suburban family, restless in their social stature, and eager to climb a sometimes wobbly social ladder (a ladder made even wobblier by the Great Depression). Irvin’s distinct, graceful line renders the Smythes in all their glory and hilarity as they navigate ill-fated dinner parties with pompous socialites, fend off robbers dressed as Santa, and get chased out of restaurants by cleaver-wielding chefs. With flavors of the upper-crust humor of Wodehouse and the suburban surrealism of Cheever, The Smythes drolly captures the joys, heartbreaks, and humiliations of being in a family. Handpicked by acclaimed cartoonists R. Kikuo Johnson and Dash Shaw—who also penned the introduction together—this new selection of Smythes strips also includes an afterword by comics historian Caitlin McGurk that sheds new light on Irvin’s work ...

Mallory, Irvine and Everest - Robert H Edwards
The last climb of George Mallory and Andrew Irvine, towards the summit of Mount Everest on 8 June 1924, has been shrouded in mystery for a century. Were they the first humans to stand at the highest point in the world? The discovery of Mallory's body in 1999 did nothing to resolve the mystery. Until now, accounts of their climb have been driven by speculation and preconceived narrative. In this book, which marks the 100th anniversary of the fateful climb, Dr Robert Edwards brings the fresh and original perspective of a mathematician to the story of Mallory and Irvine. Dr Edwards has assembled the contemporary accounts of the early British expeditions, written by the climbers and their leaders, and has identified their anomalies and inconsistencies. He has studied the letters of George Mallory, and has held in his hand the diaries of Andrew Irvine. He has viewed, in person, some of the surviving artifacts: the ice axe found in 1933, and Mallory's boots, recovered in 1999\. He has corresponded with modern mountaineers who have climbed Everest. Above all, he has applied mathematics and modern imaging and mapping technology to an analysis of what the 1924 climbers could, and could not, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The astrological student may know that the Sun is the most important factor in the birth horoscope; but frequently used terms such as “self expressionâ€give little insight into this most profound and complex of astrological symbols.
