He details the paths of four patients whose work in painting, pottery, and dance in conjunction with psychotherapy led them from depression to a more meaningful life. Their dramatic paintings illustrate the text.Part One presents an overview of the biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual factors involved in the diagnosis of depression.Part Two provides a new therapeutic approach to treating depression, focusing on the symbolic death and rebirth of the ego (egocide) as an alternative to suicide.Part Three presents indepth case studies from Dr. Rosen's practice.Part Four discusses how we can recognize crisis points and how creativity can transform depression. The author pays particular attention to the problem of teen suicide.
