Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. ACCLAIM: This account is fascinating and very well written; what a life and what a story, told with sincerity and clarity and with an underlying notion of the horrors and fears of past traumas and suffering.Helmut Bertelsman - Director, FUNDA EducationI highly recommend A BIPOLAR JOURNEY - THE TORMENT AND THE TRIUMPH. It is an important and inspiring contribution to the understanding of, and help for bipolar sufferers, their families and indeed anyone interested in the human mind.G E de Villiers - Fmr Executive Chairman of Hodder&Stoughton Educational, Southern Africa, and of Ravan Press There is no denying the pain, nor the passion; both paths to potential self-destruction or fulfillment. What your story illustrates is the importance of what one does with the agony and the ecstasy. How one faces and manages what you have been born with. And, the courage to carry on. Armand Kruger - Clinical Psychologist, AuthorThe historical narrative works really well - it is accessible, fascinating and compelling.David Langhan - Education consultant, Pearson Education ABOUT 'A BIPOLAR JOURNEY''A Bipolar Journey - Torment and Triumph' is an autobiography which deals with a journey which is both excruciatingly painful and highly successful, successes being often driven by hypomanic surges. The successes are dealt with in some detail, enough to help general readers understand the educational theories and practises involved.The psychology of the Bipolar condition is supplemented with investigations of other psychological phenomena, such as early experiences forming scripts which can 'play' in adulthood, creating bothpositive and negative behaviours. Also the psychological strategies needed to cope with trauma as described in Victor Frankl's brilliant book 'Man's search for meaning 'and in an appendix.The acclaims for the book in the first pages make a strong case for the book being needed not only for Bipolar sufferers and the people involved with them, but also the general public which can gain important understandings of what the human condition entails.The psychologists who comment on the book recommend that it be studied by psychologists and psychiatrists in their training.There is much of interest and entertainment with humour outside the business of psychology. Such as experiences in the early years of growing up, adventures in traveling to and working overseas, studies of artworks and a brief history of the Russian revolution.The evaluators comment positively on the quality of the writing, one describing it as 'compelling reading' and another as 'an inspiring memoir'.
