Thanks to Netgalley and FSG for the ebook. This slim volume looks at why some humans desire to change and what the roots of that conversion can look like. He uses history to show us the great religious conversions of Augustine and Paul. He expands on ideas of Freud, William James, Socrates and so many others.

Thank you, Picador and the author, for the advance reading copy.

This is my personal favourite from the new series that's coming out next year on various topics related to our mind and behaviour.

Much of the content is related to psychoanalysis and its related fields in relation to the title.

I would say the writing has long sentences and paragraphs so be mindful about these when you pick up the book.

Recommending for those who like reading about medical references in relation to human behavior and psychology.

Thank you, Picador and the author, for the advance reading copy.

This book takes an empathetic approach and gives bite size approaches and allows you to have kindness and patience with yourself when dealing with life. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. Highly recommend. Especially loved the reflection to true life to humanize my feelings and relate. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
