Book description
We all have people in our lives that we just can't seem to get along
with. Whether it's our spouse, co-worker or neighbour, something about
the relationship just rubs us up the wrong way, and though our natural
instinct is to blame the other person, that can just make things worse.
In Feeling Good Together, renowned US psychiatrist Dr David
Burns applies his successful method of cognitive interpersonal therapy
to teach us how to take control of our relationships.
Building on the principles that he first introduced in Feeling
Good (over 4 million copies sold), Burns offers innovative
techniques designed to improve communication skills and shows us how
to cope with different personality types, such as the big ego, the
jealous type, the stubborn mule and the critic, and reveals the five
secrets of effective communication.
This groundbreaking book will identify the behaviours that are
sabotaging your relationships and give you the tools to change.
Dr David Burns is the author of five books including the bestselling
Feeling Good
and
When Panic Attacks
. He is an Adjunct Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral
Sciences at the Stanford University School of Medicine and has served as
Visiting Scholar at Harvard Medical School. In February 2008 Dr Burns
and
Feeling Good
were featured on the BBC's Imagine series (first episode).
