The Examined Life: How We Lose and Find Ourselves Review: Simply excellent and thought provoking. - This made a profound effect on me upon reading. The author gives such insight to the human condition. A must read for anyone looking to understand why we as humans act the way we do especially when we are struggling with mourning or psychological problems. A perfect book. Review: Personal and Intriguing - This collection of observations captures the intimacy of the client/ therapist relationship through addressing tether emotional context of the stories. There is a lot for the reader to learn from the individual client cases, but the book seems to lack a central thesis or through line connecting the title to the collection of case studies. While I learned a good deal about these patients and about the author, and I can gather lessons from both, the implication of a “how” eluded to in the title seems to be mostly absent. Still a valuable read, but it’s not a guide. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #25,405 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #19 in Popular Psychology Psychoanalysis #476 in Personal Transformation Self-Help | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 3,707 Reviews | ## Images ![The Examined Life: How We Lose and Find Ourselves - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-6DlLw88L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simply excellent and thought provoking. *by A***O on February 21, 2026* This made a profound effect on me upon reading.

I read it in the first day I got this, and wanted more! I really hope he comes out with another book. I had several Ah-Ha moments of my own and I think anyone who reads this beautiful book would, too. Some people on here have complained that they wanted more details, more of the story of each character (and that did make me hesitate on purchasing, but I'm glad I decided to try it out myself) - but I actually disagree with them. The beauty of this book is that each story, or insight ends with a bang. You are brought into the scene adequately enough, with just the right amount of backstory, you are told the meat of the matter, and a little explanation on the reasoning behind the behavior. I think there were only 2 or 3 that I had a couple of questions about. But it is better to leave your audience wanting more, and I definitely did. I don't want to give too much away, just say that for me, personally, this book woke me up- and it was nice to relate to some stories, and I think anyone that enjoys studying human behavior would love to add this to their collection. For me, it will be one I reread when I need to remind myself how not to get stuck, to not be afraid of change, and all around how to be a better person. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Examined Life: How We Lose and Find Ourselves - The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma - Maybe You Should Talk To Someone: A Therapist, HER Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1700297-the-examined-life-how-we-lose-and-find-ourselves](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1700297-the-examined-life-how-we-lose-and-find-ourselves) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
