A monumental work on the world of psychotherapy by one of the leading representatives in the field. Stern's "The Present Moment" is a highly innovative, indeed radically innovative book. Its application to clinical psychoanalysis is both fascinating and convincing. With his work "The Infant's Experience," Daniel Stern initiated a paradigm shift. I believe he has achieved this once again. "The Present Moment" is a brilliant and groundbreaking work. Although the here and now strongly influences our everyday lives and we are subjectively only alive and aware in the present, surprisingly little thought has been given to the present moment in everyday perception. Daniel N. Stern is an internationally renowned author of bestsellers such as "The Infant's Experience" and "The Diary of a Baby.".
