Publisher's Synopsis

We spend most of our time and energy chasing ‘success', such that we have little left over for thinking and feeling, being and relating. As a result, we fail in the deepest possible way. We fail as human beings.

The Art of Failure explores what it means to be successful, and how – if at all – true success can be achieved.

Dr Neel Burton is a psychiatrist and philosopher who lives and teaches in Oxford, England. His other books include The Meaning of Madness and Plato's Shadow, both also with Acheron Press.
