Utilizing in-depth research and analysis, this volumedebunks the quick fixes and simplistic explanationsof Dr. Phil McGraw. While he’s watched andrevered by millions, no critique exists for his daytimeadvice—and like much of “pop psychology,” hiscounsel is often ineffective, leaving people feelinglike failures and that something is wrong with them.Readers will easily identify with the guests and sto-ries from actual Dr. Phil episodes, on topics rangingfrom anger, sex, addictions, and dieting to domes-tic violence, race, and gender. A powerful, love-based alternative psychology is then offered,basing itself on the belief that there is profoundmeaning in people’s struggles. Story after storyshows how people’s difficulties are seeds of theirunique beauty, power, and intelligence, elevatingrather than diminishing their esteem. The insight and compassion provided for people’s humanityprovided here cuts through the easy soundbitesand will leave people feeling a genuine love forwho they really are.
