«Lo malo de lo bueno» is the psychology essay by Paul Watzlawick, published by Herder & Herder in paperback (136 pages, in Spanish).
Paul Watzlawick analyzes how well-intentioned and radical solutions to a problem can become «hypersolutions» that worsen the situation. With everyday examples, he warns against the search for absolute certainties and mutually exclusive alternatives, and shows the mechanisms that perpetuate these vicious circles.
Work originally published in 1980 under the title Vom Schlechten des Guten oder Hekates Lösungen; the Spanish edition appeared in 1999.
A title for readers interested in psychology, self-help, and communication, with a paradoxical and reflective approach.
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.
