Book Synopsis Wu Wei, Negativity, and Depression by : Siroj Sorajjakool
Book excerpt: This guide for pastors working with depressed people describes the application of the Eastern practice of wu wei or "non-trying" to Western pastoral intervention. He contends that by abandoning the search for affirmation, the patient is able to break the downward spiral of self-regulatory perseveration. Coverage includes, for example, psychosocial and biological theories of depression, feminist pastoral care, Taoist philosophy, and the moral implications of wu wei. c. Book News Inc.
