(Paperback - Reprint)
Two of America's leading psychologists, Jeffrey E.Young, Ph.D., and Janet S. Klosko, Ph.D., show readers how to free themselves from negative life patterns. Written with compassion as well as clinical insight, this thought-provoking book guides readers through the process of identifying "life traps." For example, "Do you put the needs of others before your own? Are you drawn into relationships with people who are self-centered, cold to you, misunderstand you, or use you? Do you feel inadequate compared to people around you?" Followed by an engaging discussion that makes use of case studies, this book can help people change their lives by stopping the cycle of self-destruction.
Two renowned psychologists offer an innovative approach to solving long-term emotional problems based on the proven principles of cognitive therapy. As seen on Oprah, this guide shows how to effectively change negative thought patterns.

November 19, 2001: As a devotee of self help books, I have read quite a few and this is one of the best. The book is written in plain english and lays out common sense, yet detailed, explanations for some destructive thought patterns. The solutions offered, by no means fool proof, enable the reader try to interrupt the behavior that is causing their anxiety, depression, etc.
