I'm confused! Did Jeffrey Berman write this book about Irvin D. Yalom or did Irvin D. Yalom write it and Jeffrey Berman critiques it? I guess I'll have to read it to find out. I have read about 5+ of Irvin Yalom's books and they have all been FABULOUS! As gifted a therapist as he must be, he also excels at writing about therapy. My favorite detail of his writing is his honesty of thoughts regarding the therapeutic relationship!!
