A classic of modern psychology, this book uses irony and satire to explore how humans often create their own unhappiness. Paul Watzlawick provides a 'how-to' guide for misery, effectively mirroring the paradoxical ways we sabotage our own well-being.
Paul Watzlawick was an Austrian-American family therapist, psychologist, communication theorist, and philosopher. A theoretician in communication theory and radical constructivism, he commented in the fields of family therapy and general psychotherapy. Watzlawick believed that people create their own suffering in the very act of trying to fix their emotional problems. He was one of the most influential figures at the Mental Research Institute and lived and worked in Palo Alto, California.
