Drifting through his dreams and trampling through his thoughts are Paula, Yalom's \"courtesan of death\"; Myrna, whose eavesdropping gives new meaning to patient confidentiality; Magnolia, into whose ample lap Yalom longs to pour his own sorrows, even as he strives to ease hers; and Momma--ill-tempered, overpowering, and suffocating her son with both love and disapproval. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA richly rewarding, almost illicit glimpse into the therapist's heart and mind, \u003cem\u003eMomma and the Meaning of Life \u003c\/em\u003eilluminates the unique potential of every human relationship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-376973\"\u003eIrvin D.
