shocking, surprising and mind-blowing, 2009-12-02
It is guaranteed that the reader will be utterly blown away with this extraordinary collection of medical insights into the symptoms that can occur when there are brain malfunctions with their consequenct bizarre changes in mental perceptions.This essentially is a collection of case histories that are quite out of the scope of the average persons understanding. Oliver Sacks' accessible style of writing gives us glimpses into the 'unreal' lives of patients who have to negotiate their everyday lives lacking some essential and basic abilities to relate to the world in a 'normal' way either in the business of memory, sensory perception or mobility.Each case reads like a whacky novel and leaves the reader with a feeling of walking on thin ice because the very foundations upon which we as 'normal'human beings base our lives come into question too.Not to be missed!

You will never forget:

1) the events that you will read in this book!
2) Gabriel Weston's brilliant use of the English language.
3) Her vocabulary is so descriptive.
4) every time you have to go into Hospital.
5) You will look and listen to Consultants in a new and entirely different way.
6) You will hope that you don't become a Chapter in a book like this...

The mindful way, 2010-02-13
This book is a self-help book and so designed for a larger public. For advanced readers I suggest picking up a copy of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy for Depression: A New Approach to Preventing Relapse, by the same authors. Both books show promosing and inspiring new ways to deal more effectively with chronic unhappiness and depression in your life and most importantly with the causes. The steps outlined in "The Mindful Way through Depression" can bring on a radical paradigm shift in the way you view your anxiety and depression. The authors are trained in both, traditional Psychotherapy and Mindfulness, so they profoundly know what they are talking about. They invite you on a journey into the deeper workings of your mind. Through the wilderness on to more peaceful grounds. But beware, it is no easy way and for some people, depending on the severity of their experience, it may be better not to try this at home. A book can never replace a good caring person.

what have you got to lose, 2010-02-24
Im 45 and have been a smoker for 30 years. I have tried just about everything from will power, patches, hypnotherapy to prescribed tablets, some of these methods have been hopeless while others have worked for a while. Allen Carrs book has given me a completely fresh take on why I smoke, what happens to my body and mind when I smoke and the cycle smoking creates. Its been 4 weeks since I finished the book and whenever I think about having a cigarette the desire to not have one is stronger. so if your serious about giving up but cant imagine a future without smoking give this book a go. what have you got to lose.

Mind Over Mood, 2010-03-04
Recommended by my tutor. Am now using the exercises & guidelines in the book to work with clients using these CBT techniques.

It allows clarity of thought for both myself as a therapist and for my clients. It also allows clients to understand how they are progressing as they work through the personal exercises provided in the book.

It is extremely useful. So much so that I have today ordered the Clinicians Guide to Mind Over Mood, so I am looking forward to receiving & utilising this within my practice. excellent choice and invaluable as a working tool.

This book is saving my life., 2010-02-22
For someone suffering depression to any degree, I recommend this book. It covers the reasons behind depression, the effects it can have, methods for coping, and gives examples to show you you are not alone!
Reading this book has made depression understandable, and shown me that there is a light at the end of the tunnel - it's definitely worth a look.
