"In a superbly written book, Ed Shneidman develops his theory that persons commit suicide if death is more attractive than life. He gives moving examples of how he could convince some, not others, that they are making the wrong choice."--Frederick Redlich, M.D., former Dean of Yale Medical School "The clear lessons and gripping life stories in this book will let every type of reader, layperson, or professional know instantly what has taken a lifetime of study and clinical experience to know. Shneidman has searched, found, and now shows us his astonishing discovered truths."--Caroline C. Murray, Ed.D., Lecturer, Harvard Medical School, Emerita "The Suicidal Mind is an important book written by a master teacher, clinician, and researcher of human behavior of which suicide is a part. It is a book that requires the serious attention of all thoughtful persons for the many profound insights it provides into human nature in general and suicidal behavior in particular."--Shirley L. Zimmerman, Ph.D., University of Minnesota "The dean of suicidologists and preeminent among them, Professor Shneidman has studied the suicidal mind for more than 40 years and has plenty to tell us about it. He leads the reader through these pages like a friendly guide, using the experiences of Ariel Wilson, Beatrice Bessen, and the unforgettable Castro Reyes to explain to us suicide's commonalities. Free of jargon, vividly written, this is a book for those who comprehend little about suicide, and for those who grasp much. Every reader, naive or sophisticated about this subject, will arise from reading The Suicidal Mind understanding much more."--John T. Maltsberger, M.D., Harvard Medical School "In a superbly written book, Ed Shneidman develops his theory that persons commit suicide if death is more attractive than life.

Why do people take their own lives? Is there anything others can do to stop them? How can we tell when a person is suicidal? In this book, Edwin Schneidman looks carefully at the psychological processes that lead to suicide and discusses suicide as a product of psychological pain and thwarted psychological needs. With suicide (and especially youth suicide) seemingly increasing throughout the Western world today, this book represents a forthright attempt to revitalize the topic anddemonstrate that everyone can detect and stop potential suicides from occuring.
