Dr.Yaryura-Tobias defines the balanced personality as one in harmony with self, family, society and the cosmos. This book is most helpful in suggesting how individuals can make choices to preserve their hope, creativity and ideals in a shattered, dehumanized world. The author, a psychiatrist, reflects on his experiences in his native Argentina, where he helped patients other doctors had deemed incurable, and in New York City, where he practices bio-behavioral therapy. "Integral beings" are people who keep up a dialogue with spouses, read newspapers with skepticism, fight pseudodemocracy and meditate regularly. The author dispenses down-to-earth advice on everything from choosing a mate to the decision whether to have children.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Pathogenesis, Diagnosis and Treatment
By Jose A. Yaryura-Tobias and Fugen Neziroglu
Based on extensive clinical experience with more than 2,000 patients and exhaustive literature reviews, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Spectrum presents a comprehensive examination of OCD, its related disorders, and their treatment regimens. In this book, Drs. Yaryura-Tobias and Neziroglu propose a unique theory for OCD that defines the condition as a complex phenomenon of unknown duration with a variable symptomatology that affects the individual's cognitive, behavioral, biological, and social well-being. They argue that OCD is not a single clinical entity but part of a continuum of related disorders previously considered to be separate. As a result, the authors advocate an integrated approach to treatment including family intervention, cognitive-behavior therapy, and pharmacotherapy.
