«Geen pillen, maar Plato!» is Lou Marinoff's essay on practical philosophy, published by Singel Uitgeverijen in paperback (363 pages, in Dutch).
The author presents philosophy as an alternative to therapy or medication for everyday problems: relationships, ethical decisions, career changes, or lack of meaning. With the help of Plato, Kierkegaard, the I Ching, and other classics, he proposes applying their ideas to concrete cases and adapting them to each person's beliefs.
Dutch translation of the English original «Plato, Not Prozac!» (1999); this edition is from 2006.
For readers interested in practical philosophy and self-help, with an approach based on the classics rather than conventional therapy.
