ADVICE NOT GIVEN - MARK EPSTEIN KARTONIERT (TB)

"Most people will never find a great psychiatrist or a great Buddhist teacher  but Mark Epstein
is both  and the wisdom he imparts in Advice Not Given is an act of generosity and compassion.
The book is a tonic for the ailments of our time."-Ann Patchett  New York Times bestselling
author of Commonwealth   Our ego  and its accompanying sense of nagging self-doubt as we work
to be bigger  better  smarter  and more in control  is one affliction we all share. But while
our ego is at once our biggest obstacle  it can also be our greatest hope. We can be at its
mercy or we can learn to work with it. With great insight  and in a deeply personal style 
renowned psychiatrist and author Dr. Mark Epstein offers a how-to guide that refuses a quick
fix. In Advice Not Given  he reveals how Buddhism and Western psychotherapy  two traditions
that developed in entirely different times and places  both identify the ego as the limiting
factor in our well-being  and both come to the same conclusion: When we give the ego free rein
we suffer  but when it learns to let go  we are free.
