- Identify your core purpose(s) in life to feel as though you are working towards your destiny.
- Implement evidence-based practices for maximizing your potential on a daily basis.
- Discover cutting-edge neuropsychological treatments for combatting depression and existential crisis.
-Alex Korb, Bestselling Author of The Upward Spiral It is absolutely worth it! Pursuing Purpose by Nate Shanok is a truly insightful read for those looking to get the most out of their lives. The book merges neuroscience, psychology, and practical advice to help readers understand their own potential and take action to achieve their desired life goals. -Dr. Sukanlaya Sawang (Editor of Behavioral Sciences) Victor Frankl's ideas about people's search for purpose and meaning in life has been the bulwark for humanistic theory and psychotherapy. Rarely has it been examined from a neuropsychological perspective. This is what Nate Shanok has done in his highly accessible book, Pursuing Purpose: A Neuropsychological Approach to Maximize Life and Enjoy the
Process. Dr. Shanok takes the reader on a personal journey of discovering purpose and its role in psychological wellbeing. Shanok combines descriptions of his own quest for purpose and those of others with rigorous scientific evaluations of the importance of purpose and meaning in psychological adjustment. The novel contribution of this book is the successful integration of humanistic theory and therapy influenced by Frankl's revolutionary ideas with solid empirical evidence, much of it neuropsychological. Pursuing Purpose will be of interest to anyone who has thought about the meaning of life (and whom of us hasn't) but who wants the answers to this existential question to be based on solid science.
