Stephen Grosz is a practicing psychoanalyst—he has worked with patients for more than twenty-five years. Born in America and educated at the University of California, Berkeley, and at Oxford University, he teaches at the Institute of Psychoanalysis and in the Psychoanalysis Unit at University College London. He lives in London. His stories have appeared in the Financial Times Weekend Magazine and Granta. A Sunday Times bestseller, The Examined Life, is his first book.
In 2013, Stephen Grosz published his first book, The Examined Life, a collection of psychoanalytic insights gathered over twenty-five years of clinical work. The book was met with acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic. Writing in the New York Times, Michiko Kakutani said, 'The Examined Life … shares the best literary qualities of Freud’s most persuasive work.&nbsp;
It is … an insightful and beautifully written book … a series of slim, piercing chapters that read like a combination of Chekhov and Oliver Sacks.' Alexander Linklater, in the Observer, wrote that Grosz's case histories 'are shaped like short stories, but true and moving in ways that fiction cannot be. […] Gradually accumulating through his book, Grosz provides, not a definition, but an enactment of the purpose of psychoanalysis, which is both modest and profound.' An international bestseller, The Examined Life has been translated into over thirty languages, read on the radio, and adapted for the stage.
Grosz conceptualizes psychoanalysis as a process in which a patient tells and re-tells a story about his or her life and works with a psychoanalyst to change that story where it has become a trap – ‘When we cannot find a way to tell our story, our story tells us.’ His alertness to the central place of narrative in psychoanalysis links him to its origins in the work of Sigmund Freud.&nbsp;
Indeed, Grosz was initially gripped by Freud’s model of the mind and his storytelling. In deploying a narrative, rather than a theoretical argument, to communicate the understanding he has gathered in his clinical work, he aims to offer both fellow clinicians a way of thinking about similar situations with their patients and lay-readers a sense of the delicate, difficult, creative work of psychoanalysis.

Francesc Miralles Contijoch (born 27 August 1968) is a Catalan writer, essayist, translator, and musician. Miralles, son of a dressmaker and an erudite office clerk, was born on 27 August 1968 in Barcelona, Spain. Having studied for eight years at a Catholic school in La Ribera, next to the Palau de la Música, he decided to continue his education by attending secondary school at the now-defunct Almi Academy and at Montserrat High School.
Despite his bad high-school records, he was admitted to the faculty of Journalism at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) but dropped out after four months. That year he worked as a waiter in Les Puces del Barri Gótic, a bar located on Montsió Street, where he learned to play the piano.
The following year he returned to university to study for a degree in English, and he worked as a language teacher in a primary school at the same time. After 5 years of apathy, at a standstill in the third year of his university course, he once again abandoned his studies.
Having been bitten by the travel bug since the age of 17, he decided to leave it all and travel the world. He lived in Croatia and Slovenia during the Balkan Wars, an experience that, years later, would be the basis for his book Cafè Balcànic (Balkan Café).
When he returned to Barcelona, he went back to university once again, this time studying for a degree in German at the University of Barcelona. After finishing his degree, he did a post-graduate course in editorial studies. His entry into the editorial world had started the previous year, as a translator of books about spirituality and alternative therapies, from German to English.
After finishing his degree, he was hired as an editor by a publishing house specializing in self-help books. There he was in charge of different collections and wrote all kinds of works under a pseudonym. His thirteen months working for the publishing house were so full of incidents that they might, in some ways, be considered equivalent to the military service he hadn't done; in his first novel written in Spanish, Barcelona Blues, he recounts this experience.
After leaving the publisher, he promised himself never to work for a company again. He decided to try his luck with the young adult novel Un haiku per l'Alícia (A Haiku for Alice), for which he was awarded the 2001/02 Gran Angular prize. Since then, he has been making a living mainly as a writer but also as a literary consultant for several publishers and an agency.
Other young-adult literature he has published are El Quinto Mago (The Fifth Wizard), with a backdrop of fine magic, Alison Blix, El Cuaderno de Aroha (Aroha's Notebook), as well as Retrum, a young-adult novel that has been translated into eight languages and which is linked to his later trilogy called Øbliviøn by the presence of the Gothic-inspired urban tribe known as Los Pálidos (The Pale Beings).
In the autumn of 2009, he and his co-author and friend Alex Rovira received the Torrevieja Prize for the novel La última respuesta (The Last Answer). The two have also jointly published El Laberinto de la Felicidad (The Labyrinth of Happiness), Un Corazón lleno de Estrellas (A Heart Full of Stars), and El Bosque de la Sabiduría (The Forest of Wisdom), which have been translated into more than twelve languages.
The novel El mejor lugar del mundo es aquí mismo (The Best Place in the World is Right Here) (2008), co-authored by Care Santos, has been translated into a similar number of languages. Among the adult novels written by him, a highlight is Ojalá estuvieras aquí (Wish You Were Here) (2009), a melancholic story full of love and mystery. This novel tells of Miralles's experiences in a band called Hotel Guru. It is redolent of the artistic atmosphere of l'Astorbari, a bar in the Barcelona district of Gràcia where live concerts are performed.
Wabi-Sabi, a story about the beauty of imperfection and the ephemeral, will appear this coming spring; it is the long-awaited sequel to Amor en minúscula (Love in Lower-Case Letters), which has already been translated into twenty languages. Since 2012, he has been working on the novel La luz de Alejandría (The Light of Alexandria), which he is writing together with Álex Rovira.

Gordon Livingston has been a physician since 1967. He is a psychiatrist and writer who contributes to the Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Baltimore Sun, and Reader's Digest. He is the author of And Never Stop Dancing, Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart, and How to Love. In the introduction to this book, Livingston boldly posits fear as the central issue of our time. It is having a pervasive effect on all dimensions of our lives: it is exploited by the media and the government for their own survival; it is the rot underneath our aggressive policy of war-making; it is the prison of the poor who have lost their jobs and homes; it is the reason why millions turn to addictive substances or prescription tranquilizers; and it is the big boogie man of death that lurks in the corner of our consciousness.
The other major player in our lives is courage. This character trait is honored on these pages with essays about ordinary people doing extraordinary things by speaking truth to power, standing up against injustice, and demonstrating resilience in the face of death and destruction. But these acts of heroism often seem few and far between. Livingston offers what he calls "an unsparing look at what we have become a devout, militarized, defensive, xenophobic, and selfish society. We need to see ourselves as we are if we are going to change this version of ourselves. Otherwise, we will continue to be manipulated by our fears, that is, by the angels of our baser nature."
