The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Fiction, yes, but so realistic
Does anyone have an opinion on any of John Gottman's books (The Marriage Clinic, 7 Principles for making marriage work,...)? I know many are considered pop psych, but some of his ideas have been recommended to me and I was wondering what your thoughts were on their usefulness in therapy, school or your own experience.
Any other suggestions for good neuropsychology books?
Don't know if anyone recommended these two:
Too Scared to Cry: Psychic Trauma in Childhood by Lenore Terr
It's a book filled with case studies on how to identify PTSD in children, starting with a particular focus on a case in which a school bus of students from one town was kidnapped.
DUDE there's a book about the psychology of Harry Potter characters? Awesome!
How Psychotherapy Really Works

Has anyone read this book? Is it worth the read?

FYI-- Half.com has one for about 23 bucks.
Wally Lamb: She's Come Undone, I Know This Much is True
My favorite writers these days are Stolorow and Atwood- they are the primary authors of Intersubjectivity theory which I find really fascinating. Context in Being: Foundations of Psychological Life is a very interesting book. One of the things I enjoy about their writing is that they incorporate research, theory and philosophy (Heidegger/Hegel mostly) into one discussion!
so has anyone read surviving graduate school in psychology yet? i don't wanna buy something that isn't informative...
thanks!

Hey!
Yes George Atwood.. Did you have him at UCLA? I could of swore the last bio on him I read stated he was teaching there.... I have not read Faces in the Clouds yet! I am actually working my way through Intersubjective Perspective.
At Rutgers. I really enjoyed his class and he was so nice... He actually didn't mind talking to students
