Successful But Something Missing

This book is aimed at anyone interested in improving and enhancing their quality of life. So often our greatest motivator is to be 'successful' - and we strive mightily to achieve a long list of things - a good job title, a car, a house, a relationship etc. - only to feel disillusioned and empty once we've got them. Ben Renshaw shows how true fulfillment comes from finding a healthy balance between the spheres of mind, body and soul. He explains: *the principles of happiness *the confidence need not be a problem *the art of relationships *how to make you 'vocation your vacation' *that developing a sense of humour is essential With a refreshing honesty - and a thoroughly fresh approach - Ben Renshaw offers many practical solutions, much wisdom and many answers to the questions which most of us ask about our hurried, stressful often baffling lives today.

Reviews

It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of Dr Bowlby's work... In practical terms, his ideas have modified and continue to influence the rearing of children and the treatment of those who are disturbed. In theoretical terms, his contributions have given psychoanalysis a shot in the arm and a biological perspective which was sadly lacking.

—— Sunday Times

The publication of Attachment and Loss will prove a turning point in the history of psychoanalysis and in psychology generally.

—— Times Literary Supplement

There can be no question that Bowlby is making a major contribution to the understanding of deviant emotional development in childhood and after.

—— Child Psychology and Psychiatry

Among animal experts, When Elephants Weep is being hailed as a milestone in the battle to make man understand he is only one member of an enormous family

—— George Gordon , Daily Mail

Crucial reading

—— New York Times Book Review

A breezy yet extremely thoughtful and intelligent work

—— Miami Herald
