Book Overview

The mind is the source of our most profound fascination and mystery, and few books have unveiled the frailties, fears, and fetishes of the human condition better than "The Taboo Scarf". These nine stories are driven by a narrative as full of passion and drama as the most powerful fiction.

Stranger than fiction & more compelling!

The fact that these fascinating case studies are presented in the style of mysteries to be resolved is a plus, reminding us that our lives are essentially narratives. We live by the stories we're told & the stories we tell ourselves, the stories we attempt to live. Weinberg takes something of a back seat, letting the individuals & their lives speak for themselves; but the reader is always aware of his intelligence & compassion. With so much of the mental health field dominated by cost analysis & treated with drugs that don't always address the real problem, this volume reiterates a vital truth: therapy is as much an art as a science, and empathy is as important as insight & wisdom. Rewarding reading for anyone interested in the universe of the human psyche!

A wonderful, warm, walk through the woods of the human soul.

I read this book as a text in a undergraduate psychology course. I highly recomend it to anyone interested in psychotherapy, what it is like to be a patient and what it is like to be a psychotherapist.
