"Most people will never find a great psychiatrist or a great
Buddhist teacher, but Mark Epstein is both, and the wisdom he
imparts in Advice Not Given is an act of generosity and compassion.
The book is a tonic for the ailments of our time."-Ann Patchett,
New York Times bestselling author of Commonwealth Our ego, and its
accompanying sense of nagging self-doubt as we work to be bigger,
better, smarter, and more in control, is one affliction we all
share. But while our ego is at once our biggest obstacle, it can
also be our greatest hope. We can be at its mercy or we can learn
to work with it. With great insight, and in a deeply personal
style, renowned psychiatrist and author Dr. Mark Epstein offers a
how-to guide that refuses a quick fix. In Advice Not Given, he
reveals how Buddhism and Western psychotherapy, two traditions that
developed in entirely different times and places, both identify the
ego as the limiting factor in our well-being, and both come to the
same conclusion: When we give the ego free rein, we suffer; but
when it learns to let go, we are free.
