Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old?
Grow old on purpose. This book invites readers to navigate a purposeful path from adulthood to elderhood with choice, curiosity, and courage. Everyone is getting old; not everyone is growing old. But the path of purposeful aging is accessible to all—and it's fundamental to health, happiness, and longevity. With a focus on growing whole through developing a sense of purpose in later life, Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old? celebrates the experience of aging with inspiring stories, real-world practices, and provocative questions. Framed by a long conversation between two old friends, the book reconceives aging as a liberating experience that enables us to become more authentically the person we always meant to be with each passing year. In their bestseller Repacking Your Bags, Richard J. Leider and David A. Shapiro defined the good life as “living in the place you belong, with people you love, doing the right work, on purpose.” This book builds on that definition to offer a purposeful path for living well while aging well.
A Psychodynamic View of Action and Responsibility
This new book by David Shapiro, author of the classic Neurotic Styles, throws light, from a clinical standpoint, on a subject of importance, both theoretically and for therapeutic practice, for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, as well as for those with general interests in philosophy or psychology. A Psychodynamic View of Action and Responsibility explores the individual’s experience of ownership or responsibility for what he or she does, says, and even believes, and their avoidance of that experience. David Shapiro considers the self-deception necessary for these disclaimers of responsibility and the surrender of personal conviction and autonomous judgment. With numerous excerpts from...
Say It's So
Since 1917, no fan of the Chicago White Sox had seen their team win a World Series. Three generations. A lifetime. In the Shapiro household, the White Sox were lifeblood, passed along with the family name: from Nate to David, from David to Ben. Then, in 2005, the White Sox finally made a run. In "Say It's So," David and Ben Shapiro document that glorious year from the perspective of a father and son rooting for the team -- and rooting for each other."I read a lot of books on baseball, but it's a rare one that can take me back to the summer of 1967, when I sat on the front porch with my father listening to radio broadcasts of the Impossible Dream Boston Red Sox. David and Ben Shapiro are loya...
Personality and Psychopathology
With his penetrating theory of personality and his nuanced understanding of the psychotherapeutic relationship, David Shapiro has influenced clinicians across the theoretical spectrum since the publication of Neurotic Styles in 1965. This influence is on vivid display in Personality and Psychopathology, as noted contemporary theorists critically evaluate his work in a fascinating dialogue with Shapiro himself. Starting with a crucial therapeutic observation—the centrality of the relationship between what the client says in session and how it is said—contributors revisit his core concepts regarding personality development, the prevolitional aspects of psychopathology, the limits to self-u...
Dynamics Of Character
In his first new book in ten years, David Shapiro extends the stubbornly intuitive clinical vision that informed his phenomenally successful Neurotic Styles to probe the psychopathological. Emphasizing self-regulatory process over biological event, Shapiro's philosophy of mind goes against the current - but with authority...not to mention a built-in audience.
