Description
Exploring why some problems persist while others are resolved, this book delves into the nature of change and its relationship to our problems. Paul Watzlawick presents an idea that challenges traditional views: that solutions to our problems may be embedded within the problems themselves.
The book examines human communication, marital and family therapy, and the therapeutic effects of paradoxes and action-oriented techniques for problem resolution. It draws on the field of psychotherapy to understand why some people can successfully change their lives while others struggle.
