The omnipotent self, a study in self-deception and self-cure

A shrewd look at the ways we fool ourselves, and how to stop. Paul Bousfield examines the hidden vanity and self-deception behind much anxiety and unhappiness, and offers a path toward honest self-understanding and cure. Written with early psychological insight, it is candid, humane, and often uncomfortably recognizable. A thoughtful book for anyone ready to see themselves a little more clearly and suffer a little less for their illusions.
