Aprašymas

LOVE, LUCK, AND NARCISSISM; WHEN POPULAR CULTURE GETS IT WRONG is a provocative and eye-opening series of essays on topics ranging from positivity, anger, and romantic love to vulnerability, empathy, and healthy religion. After working as a psychologist with people from different backgrounds for over fifty years, she has made a number of discoveries that run counter to popular culture. She challenges the universal validity of positive thinking, reclaims anger as fuel that can lead to positive action, demystifies romantic love, and reframes some aspects of narcissism as healthy. She also views Luck or Chance as vastly underrated, a perspective that leads to more gratitude and less self-blame. Piorkowski combines accessible psychology with practical guidance and case studies. One reviewer describes her as: "a pithy and highly readable guide."
