Choice Theory
by William Glasser M.D.
Overview
Freedom of choice is generally considered to be a good thing. But how can we use that freedom to make the best choices possible?
Dr. William Glasser was a psychiatrist whose work was largely influential in the fields of education, workplace management, and relationship counseling. Glasser's major contribution, choice theory, explores how we make decisions to satisfy our physical and emotional needs.
In this book from 1998, Glasser explains the fundamentals of choice theory and how it drives our behavior. Choice Theory examines how we can make better choices to fulfill our shared human needs. As such, it serves as both a diagnosis and a prescription for many of the societal ailments we face today.
