Review Quotes:
Readers will notice how this book by Elisabeth Lukas differs from the literature flooding today's market, how it radiates compassion! The ingenuity with which Dr. Lukas discovers--and inspires--humaneness in the most desolate cases! Her case histories rehumanize psychotherapy in its best sense.
This book is not only human, it is also honest. Contrary to many of her colleagues who claim to know it all, Dr. Lukas admits the limits and weaknesses of her work, thereby gaining credibility. She gets rid of stereotypes and counteracts the cynicism so prevalent in psychology today. Some passages should be shouted from the rooftops!
For Lukas, there is no human being who does not retain a chance to grow, no situation which does not have its spark of meaning. How dramatically this is done is witnessed in moving testimonies. Viktor E. Frankl
[Dr. Lukas is] "a compassionate logotherapist who understands that the personal/spiritual dimension of a given client has to be considered in order to give hope, purpose, and meaning to the windstorms of life." Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, M. D.
