Descripción: Críticas "The Choice will be an extraordinary book on heroism, healing, resiliency, compassion, survival with dignity, mental toughness, and moral courage. It will appeal to millions of people who can learn from Dr. Eger's inspiring cases and shocking personal story as well as her profound clinical wisdom to heal their lives."--Philip Zimbardo, Ph.D., Stanford Professor Emeritus of Psychology, Author of the New York Times-Bestselling The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil"The Choice is more than an eloquent memoir by Holocaust survivor and psychologist Edith Eva Eger. It is an exploration of the healing potential of choice. . . Eger is not suggesting that she is unscarred by her experience, but that she lives a life filled with grace. The Choice is not a how-to book; it is, however, an invitation to choose to live life fully."-- "Book Page""The Choice pulls together stories and insights [Eger] has shared with people around the world for decades and reveals new dimensions of her remarkable life."-- "El Paso Inc.""The Choice uses Eger's journey to teach readers how they, too, can triumph over trauma."-- "Broadly""A beautiful memoir, reminiscent of the great works of Anne Frank and Viktor Frankl. But it is more than a book--it is a work of art. It gave me goosebumps, the kind that grace you in transcendent moments of appreciating a Mozart sonata, an Elizabeth Barrett Browning sonnet, or the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel." --Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B with Sheryl Sandberg"A more important book for our times is hard to imagine"-- "The Bookseller""A poignantly crafted memoir...a searing, astute study of intensive healing and self-acceptance through the absolution of suffering and atrocity."-- "Kirkus, starred review""Eger present a searing firsthand account of surviving the Holocaust in this heartfelt memoir of trauma, resilience, and hope... Offering a gripping survival story and hard-won wisdom for facing the painful impact of trauma on the human psyche, this valuable work bears witness to the strength of the human spirit to overcome unfathomable evil."-- "Library Journal""I can't imagine a more important message for modern times. Eger's book is a triumph, and should be read by all who care about both their inner freedom and the future of humanity."-- "New York Times Book Review""I finished the book with tears in my eyes and gratitude in my heart."-- "Carol Brooks, First for Women""I would take Edie Eger on an Op with me any day."--U.S. Navy SEAL Commander (Ret) Mark Divine, Bestselling author of The Way of the SEAL and Unbeatable Mind"If you are a person suffering from despair or hopelessness, this is the perfect book for you. If you're not suffering from despair, this book will help inspire you to seek out and bring hope to those who are."-- "Roanoke Times""Life's experiences can lead to contraction and grief and to expansion and love. The story of Edie Eger's WWII era experiences and her subsequent growth and life path is an incredible journey and victory of the human soul over the pain of human degradation."--Stephen Robinson, CEO, MAGIS Group LLC, Specialist in Optimal Performance under Stress(TM) (OPS(TM)) training"The Choice...details [Eger's] time at Auschwitz, her escape, and how she became a groundbreaking clinical therapist who has paved the road for treatment of trauma survivors battling Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)."-- "Kveller.com""This book is partly a memoir and partly a guide to processing trauma. Eger was only sixteen years old when she and her family got sent to Auschwitz. After surviving unbelievable horrors, she moved to the United States and became a therapist. Her unique background gives her amazing insight, and I think many people will find comfort right now from her suggestions on how to handle difficult situations." --Bill Gates"This book, no doubt, will be remembered as important for going beyond the realm of
