The Dying Self Is a Book Review
The book explores the idea that we live as individualists in the west. We are individually responsible for our success and our failure, he says. This is a motivating way of organizing your thoughts but it can also be savagely self-destructive. The author talks about how perfectionism has been implicated in suicidal adiation or eating disorders.
