Human Desiring & Realistic Desiring Approach: Theory and Self-Help Approach

The book is focused on introducing and explaining a theory of desiring in relation to individuals and societies, and on a particular self-help approach. It is illustrated why the emphasis is put on desires as a crucial factor in the human life. The theory is a significant base for understanding others and ourselves, for creating attitudes and making judgements and decisions. Consequences of longing are also inscribed. The basic assumption for solving problems is awareness of them, their consequences and their actual causes. To emphasise this point is the goal of the first two chapters. Then there is the second assumption - to find a realistic solution. A particular approach for dealing with negative consequences of human desiring or even with their prevention is introduced in the chapter 3. The approach is adapted to using it as a self-help method.
