We view "A Guide to Rational Living" as a somewhat revolutionary book. When it first appeared in 1961, it presented to the reading public one of the first books by reputable, experienced psychotherapists that showed people how to deal effictively with their own problems. This occured a few years before Eric Berne's "Games People Play" came out; and a long time before such popular books as "I'm OK, You're OK" and "How to Be You're Own Best Friend." In many ways then, this adds up to a notable updated, signicantly developed, and extensively revised edition of "A Guide to Rational Living." We believe that virtually all the effective teachings of the original version remain. But a whale of a lot has gotten added! Read on - and see for yourself. Albert Ellis, Robert A. Harper
