Should You Leave? A Psychiatrist Explores Intimacy and Autonomy -- and the Nature of Advice by Peter D Kramer - 1997

excellent shape the dust covers intact -a couple of places the books are highlighted and a few notes in ink not much. However it's obvious that someone studied it very carefully & used it in a decision-making process logically...Peter D. Kramer imagines scenarios in which he addresses a series of advice seekers-a stunning and moving look at the many- layered complexities of intimacy,-. Each "session" not only reveals the various styles of giving advice - from Freudian psychoanalytic techniques to Ann Landers's application of conventional values - but probes the complexities of human relationships: How do we choose our partners? How well do we know them? How do mood states affect our assessment of them and theirs of us? When should we work to improve a relationship, and when should we walk away? What does "working on a relationship" entail? Kramer's questions lead to a reconsideration of our culture's norms - and to a suggestion that we may have begun to over-value autonomy and assertiveness at the cost of intimacy and connectedness.- my books are priced so after everyone else gets theirs, I make it least a small profit ..
