书籍简介:

Irvin D. Yalom has made a career of investigating the lives of others. In this profound memoir, he turns his writing and his therapeutic eye on himself. He opens his story with a nightmare: He is twelve, and is riding his bike past the home of an acne-scarred girl. Like every morning, he calls out, hoping to befriend her, "Hello Measles!" But in his dream, the girl's father makes Yalom understand that his daily greeting had hurt her. For Yalom, this was the birth of empathy; he would not forget the lesson. As Becoming Myself unfolds, we see the birth of the insightful thinker whose books have been a beacon to so many. This is not simply a man's life story, Yalom's reflections on his life and development are an invitation for us to reflect on the origins of our own selves and the meanings of our lives.

作者简介:

Irvin D. Yalom is an emeritus professor of psychiatry at Stanford University and a psychiatrist in San Francisco. He is the author of many books, including Love's Executioner, The Gift of Therapy, and When Nietzsche Wept.

书友短评:

@ Dorian 刚看完了几天的时候觉得这本书可以是四星。隔了一两个月再想想,觉得三星。三星不是说不好。实际上,老爷爷的文笔相当不错,那英文词用的,让一篇自传很有诗意。老爷爷有风趣幽默的地方,把自己拉到一个平易近人,和普通人一样的位置和读者互动,这是有意思的。老爷爷真诚的在凡尔赛,也并不令人生厌,完全不觉得油腻。但除去作者是著名的心理学家的这个光环,他没有特别震撼人心的地方(所以没五星),看了和不看这本书也不影响什么。如果你对这个心理学家的生平感兴趣,另当别论。只是自传来看,并没有特别出彩的地方。

书籍目录

  • 人生永远不会快乐,但人终其一生都在追求自认为会带来快乐的事物。他很少能达到目标,即使达到了目标,他也只会感到失望。人生犹如船行大海,当一只船最终抵达港湾,船体已是千疮百孔,桅杆和绳索都已消失无踪了。而且,不管他是快乐还是不幸,这都是一回事。因为他的一生终究不过是白駒过隙,稍纵即逝。
    —— 引自章节:与叔本华一起的两年 325 在我看来,叔本华为心理治疗的诞生
  • 现在,我的阅读兴趣已经转向那些著述存在主义思想的小说家和哲学家:比如,陀思妥耶夫斯基、托尔斯泰、贝克特、昆德拉、赫尔曼·黑塞、穆蒂斯和克努特·汉姆生,这些作者基本上没有涉及社会阶层、求爱、性追求、神秘或者报复这类题材,他们的主题要更加深远,触及了人类存在的范畴。他们在一个无意义的世界里挣扎着寻找意义,坦然面对不可避免的死亡和不可逾越的孤立。
