The Institute for Rational Living - 1961

It would seem like wisdom, if not for the warning in my heart. On second thought...Mr. Albert Ellis and Mrs. Robert A Harper both have at least one Ph.D (unless that is a typo). On third thought...i live really near a fortress of scientology.favorite chapter (s):
9. The art of never being desperately unhappy
17. Rewriting your personal history

Other Books and Monographs by the authors:
-The Folklore of Sex
-The American Sexual Tragedy
-The psychology of sex offenders
-How to live with a neurotic
-Sex Without Guilt
-What is Psychotherapy
-Marriage
-Creative Marriage

and 2 other titles mentioned in the book not written by either authors:
-Psychosomatic Gynecology
-Psych Yourself into Better Tennis

That's hilarious and an awesome "mining" of cultural sophistry...where did you happen upon it?

rational living goes hand in hand with neurotic, guilty sexcapades.

Weird shit, man--and "pre 60s" really--a harbinger of the changing zeitgeist.

Be reasonable, babe, now let's do it!
