In this dazzling exploration, renowned psychoanalyst Adam Phillips delves into the universal human desire for transformation and the complexities of personal change.

We live in a world that constantly invites us to change—to become our best selves through politics, fitness, diet, or therapy. As we age and face setbacks, we yearn to view our lives as narratives of positive growth and progress. In On Wanting to Change, Adam Phillips brilliantly examines the stories we tell ourselves about change and the actual changes we make, revealing the intricate and often surprising relationship between the two.

With his trademark wit and insight, Phillips illuminates the psychological underpinnings of our longing for transformation, offering a profound meditation on the human condition. An enlightening read for anyone seeking wisdom on the nature of change and the ever-evolving self.
