Dialogues with the Wise Woman - by Richard Todd Devens (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Scammed by an evil Las Vegas con artist, pianist George Sistern descends into a deep depression; and even after three years, his pain, guilt, self-loathing, rage, and desire for revenge remain. Through an acquaintance, he contacts Mildred Markowitz, a psychologist and philosopher of genius. Dialogues with the Wise Woman is more than a novel. It is a psychological and philosophical treatise that tackles many important issues: What is evil? Can good and bad be determined? Is revenge ever justified? What is the best way to deal with the current violent crime epidemic? Can all criminals be rehabilitated? Is there good in everyone? What is self-esteem, and how does one acquire it? How does one release toxic and distracting thoughts? How should one prioritize time, the universal limited commodity? How can we determine the most ethical course of action? What is happiness? A no-holds-barred search for truth that encourages readers to utilize their own rational judgment, Dialogues with the Wise Woman is the perfect read for intelligent skeptics everywhere.
