See www.glendon.org for a detailed list of Robert Firestone's books, video-tapes, and articles.

For an introduction to Robert Firestone's ideas (including exercises) written for a lay audience, I recommend Conquer Your Critical Inner Voice. If one is interested in Robert Firestone's most definitive work (a professional book), I suggest Combatting Destructive Thought Processes. In Fear of Intimacy, Firestone shows how we can learn to tolerate love in close relationships. In Suicide and the Inner Voice, Firestone delineates how the negative inner voice takes over the thinking of the depressed person, culminating all too often in suicide. In Compassionate Childrearing, Firestone extends his ideas to effective parenting. In his latest book (May 2003), Creating a Life of Meaning and Compassion: The Wisdom of Psychotherapy, Firestone articulates a vision of the "good life".

See www. psychalive.com for a new website based on R. Firestone's ideas that provides resources and the opportunity to explore one's growth in three areas: 1) alive to feelings, 2) alive to intimacy, and 3) alive to children.
