In 'The Schopenhauer Cure', Irvin D. Yalom introduces us to Julius Hertzfeld, a psychotherapist who, reflecting on his career, decides to contact Philip Slate, a former patient he couldn't help. To his surprise, Philip has found the cure for his sexual addiction through Schopenhauer's philosophy. Julius invites Philip to his therapy group, where his method of isolating himself from pain will transform the lives of all participants. Yalom intertwines history and fiction to offer a fascinating view of psychotherapy and the life of the German philosopher, creating a compelling fable about modern man.
Irvin David Yalom is an American existential psychiatrist who is an emeritus professor of psychiatry at Stanford University, as well as author of both fiction and nonfiction.
