Therapy Beyond Good and Evil
A nonjudgmental psychology is failing patients who need to hear hard truths.
Symposium
The question “What if reality isn’t what you think it is?,” once the domain of philosophy seminars and dorm-room bull sessions, has gained an unnerving cultural hold of late. The sense of reality in crisis underlies a great many cultural anxieties today — from solemn pronouncements of a new “post-truth era” to the growing worry that our neighbors are moving to fantasyland to the speculation that our world is actually a simulation.
The essays in this symposium ask how we can keep hold of the real — and what that means, anyway. This symposium also marks the beginning of “Reality: A Post-Mortem,” an essay series that will continue in future issues.
