Book by Gottlieb Daniel
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
In the nearly 30 years since the accident that made him a quadriplegic, Dan Gottlieb has developed a quality of awareness that most people never achieve. His accident made him an outsider among us (like a foreign correspondent, as he puts it) and from that vantage point, he has acutely observed the way we humans act, think, feel and live - in short, what it means to be human. Here, he files his report. Written with humour and honesty, a gift for storytelling and a great depth of compassion, Learning from the Heart addresses issues that divide as well as unite us, such as family life, the challenges facing the disabled and elderly and issues of injustice. In Letters to Sam, Dan wrote to his grandson. Here, he addresses his readers directly. Fans of his work will recognise the voice and the format: short chapters that are anecdotal, reflective and wise, revealing and deeply personal, but that resonate with universal truths.
Daniel Gottlieb, Ph.D., is a highly regarded mental health expert, talk-show host, columnist, lecturer and author in America. His award-winning radio program, Voices in the Family, airs twice weekly in Philadelphia; it is now in its twenty-first year. He writes a biweekly column, Inside Out, for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. What does it mean to be human? Asks acclaimed psychologist and talk show host Dan Gottlieb at the beginning of this award-winning book. The answers are within this audio book.With the gentle and guiding voice that has endeared him to millions of readers and listeners, Dan describes how we gain deeper wisdom and understanding from the unexpected events in our lives. A classic storyteller, Dan provides tender and deeply affecting lessons that reveal his own very human vulnerability as well as the love and generosity of others.These revelations come from an author who has experienced many forms of loss in his own life. From the moment he suffered a spinal cord injury that left him quadriplegic at the age of thirty-three, Dan found himself facing the kinds of questions that most people encounter over the course of a lifetime. In the process of rebuilding his career, his family, and his life, Dan made discoveries about what all humans have in common, including a longing for love, understanding, and security. And he learned that the speed of life only takes us further away from what we long for.In this audio, Dan is unstintingly generous in sharing the thoughts and feelings that have touched the lives of so many. From Our Orphanhood (why the universality of loneliness can make us feel less alone) and We, the Wounded (how wounds may be inevitable, but so is healing) to What Our Children See (how parental stress can shape a child's future) and Holding My Mother's Hand (a moving recollection on the death of a parent), Dan reflects on the challenges that all of us face as humans and the feelings that, too often, we do not allow to surface.And, finally, Dan succeeds in answering the primary question: What does it mean to be human? His answers--challenging and reassuring, humorous and transcendent--are sure to touch the heart of every listener. N° de réf. du vendeur 00108148092
