A 5 page review of “Love's Executioner: And Other Tales of Psychotherapy” written by psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom. The book reveals some of the most personal reflections of his patients’ desires and motivations.

Indeed, it is this revealing aspect of “Love's Executioner” which makes the book a tremendously useful and constructive resource to practicing psychotherapist as well as to those who wish to gain insight on the relationship which exists between psychotherapist and patient.
