# On Getting Better by Adam Phillips (Paperback)

To talk about getting better - about wanting to change in ways that we might choose and prefer - is to talk about pursuing the life we want; in the full knowledge that our pictures of the life we want, of our version of a good life, come from or come out of what we have already experienced. (We write the sentences we write because of the sentences we have read.)<br> <br> How can we talk differently about how we might want to change, knowing that all change precipitates us into an uncertain future?<br> <br> In this companion book to <i>On Wanting to Change</i>, Adam Phillips explores how we might get better at talking about what it is to get better.
