An exceptionally compelling and beautifully written collection of psychological case studies. This classic medium, first popularised by Freud and, more recently, by Oliver Sacks and Yalom himself, provides a fascinating insight into the human condition and our search for happiness. The book contains six absorbing case studies which reveal the intricacies of the clients' psychological landscapes and provides a fascinating insight into the human condition and our search for happiness as it explores the unique dynamic of the relationship between therapist and client. Wildly entertaining and deeply thoughtful, Momma and the Meaning of Life is a work of rare insight and imagination.
