Summary: Worth The Effort With Little Risk
Comment: We all tend to carry in our heads some false messages which are self-defeating. By changing these tapes and getting rid of irrational thoughts we can then live happier and more successful lives, according to Ellis.
The theory of Rational Emotive Therapy is really quite simple. So is its practice. RET cuts right to the heart of the problem.Anyone giving RET a try as described in this book will probably reap distinct benefits with virtually no risk and little effort compared with other more time-consuming therapies.

Summary: A rational approach to everything.
Comment: Of my greatest irrational beliefs, the worst was that I was that my life had a greater meaning for this world than anyone else's. After suffering from a panic/anxiety disorder for several years, I was given this book by my therapist. I had partially convinced myself that the philosophical foundation for it was entirely too simple. Don't we all beleive that? "My case is a special one.", No My panic attacks aren't because of that, you're not understanding me." , "No one will ever understand why I feel this way." These are exactly the kinds of irrational beliefs that this book can put an end to. It's been in my possession for two weeks, and in that time I have had peace and clarity and a sense of mastery over my anxiety I have never had before. You're not different. You're not being singled out by God. Your belief that you are is the kind of irrational thinking that means you're right for this book. You're a human. Anxiety is part of life. Learn to cope with it rationally.

Summary: any one of Ellis's books will do
Comment: You don't have to get all of Albert Ellis's books like I tried to. Well, I bought three at once and it seems to me, they are pretty much all the same. It's helpful if you want to read more about cognitive behaviorial theraphy but I have found that the best book on this is David Burns' "Feeling Good" which is really worth it weight in gold. Sorry Dr. Ellis, your books are fine but not as good as Burns' book, I have found.
After reading Burns' if you want to read more, go ahead and buy one of Ellis's books and if you like it, read more, but again, Ellis's books seem all pretty similar to me. If you read the bibliography of Ellis's books, he has written dozens which focus on everything from sexual disfucntions to relationship problems, so, be choosy about books of his you buy, but again, if you want to not be miserable but feel good (at least a whole lot better), the FIRST if not the ONLY book is David Burns' "Feeling Good."
