The Albert Ellis reader: a guide to well-being using rational emotive behavior therapy / edited by Albert Ellis and Shawn Blau. A Citadel Press Book. Secaucus, N.J. 1998.
In a career spanning more than half a century, Albert Ellis has produced more than a thousand articles and some seventy books, including such ground-breaking titles as a guide to rational living, sex without guilt, and the art and science of love. While there are many anthologies of his articles in the professional press, until now Ellis s most important work has never been collected in one volume for the general reader. The Albert Ellis reader brings together writings from Ellis s most popular and critically acclaimed books and articles. Over the years, he and his ideas have often been taken out of context or misinterpreted. Now readers can get the wide scope of Dr. Ellis's controversial writings undiluted, in his own plain-spoken, no-holds-barred style. Each piece is updated by Dr. Ellis especially for this volume. He weighs in on such topics as sex, love, and marriage; anger; rational self-help; and rational living at work and in society. The Albert Ellis reader is essential reading for those who want to discover for themselves one of the most original and iconoclastic figures in modern psychology. Rated by his peers in the United States and Canada as one of the world’s most influential psychologists. Dr. Albert Ellis is president of the Albert Ellis Institute for Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy in New York City, where he makes his home. Shawn Blau, an associate fellow and training faculty supervisor at the Albert Ellis Institute, lives in New York City. Cover design by Gregory K Wilkin
