- Could Yalom psychoanalyze Spinoza or Rosenberg?If he could do this, would the course of history change?On May 10, 1940, Hitler's soldiers invaded the Netherlands. Starting from February 1941, Reichsleiter Rosenberg, head of the expedition group tasked with plunder, headed towards Amsterdam and captured Spinoza's library, which was kept in the Rijnsburg house.Why did Spinoza attract the attention of Nazi ideologist Rosenberg three centuries after his death? Will the works of the Jewish philosopher be able to undermine his antisemitic views? So, who is this man who was expelled from Amsterdam's Jewish community in 1656 and banned from seeing his family? How did Goethe disappoint Rosenberg?Based on his experiences with psychotherapy, Irvin Yalom explores the inner world of Spinoza, this unique philosopher about whom we know little, who has influenced generations of thinkers. He is also trying to understand how the deadly career of Alfred Rosenberg, who sided with Hitler and played a key role in the genocide of European Jews, developed.Irvin Yalom, who skillfully blends psychology and philosophy, reality and fiction, takes us on a breathless journey in the Spinoza Problem.He wrote a novel about the great-spirited psychiatrist and the great-spirited thinker. Assertive, wise and interesting. The Spinoza Problem pushes the reader to confront this fundamental question: Can logic always be the winner?- Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author of 36 Arguments for the Existence of GodThe Spinoza Problem was the most impressive novel I've read in years. Irvin Yalom has created an extremely informative, gripping, very tight work. I highly recommend The Spinoza Problem.- Sir Anthony HopkinsSpinoza had no 'real life' other than what he read and wrote; he was living inside his magnificent mind. So how can you write about a writer loved by Goethe, Schopenhauer, and many other thinkers, a philosopher who spends most of his time thinking? But what if you were a Nazi, what would your view of Spinoza as a Jew whose work led to the Enlightenment? In this lively novel, Irvin Yalom shoulders and solves this problem with his unique style. I think Yalom is one of the most eclectic, diverse and dazzling writers of our time.- Jay PariniIrvin Yalom is one of the world's most notable psychology-themed novelists today. When Nietzsche Wept, I thought he couldn't rise above or the Desire to Live Today, but he did. The Spinoza Problem is a true masterpiece.- Martin EP SeligmanThe Spinoza Problem is a striking confirmation of the life devoted to philosophy by a heroic philosopher who was persecuted in two different ages, in a period when medieval superstitions prevailed and in a period when totalitarian racism existed. A masterpiece, this novel depicts the victory of the clear and compassionate mind over religious dogma as well as political pathology. I think The Spinoza Problem is Yalom's best novel.- Lou Marinoff, professor of philosophy and president of the American Association of Philosophical PractitionersIrvin Yalom has presented us with a gripping and meaningful novel spanning almost three centuries and reveals how philosophy and wisdom can trigger negative repercussions that can continue for centuries. This book is a show of power by a psychiatrist-psychotherapist, one of the pioneers of his field and the author of novels that create a brand new category of novels and fascinate and enlighten us while turning its pages with excitement. The Spinoza Problem is another work that should not be missed by one of the writers who made the greatest contribution to scientific and fictional psychotherapy literature.-Dr. Alan F. SchatzbergThe Spinoza Problem is a novel that presents reality and fiction together in an impressive way. We know little about the souls of either Baruch Spinoza or Alfred Rosenberg, but Yalom, who can see the minds of his patients with his extraordinary talent, has contributed to literature as a rare gem. In fact, such a striking and provocative novel could only be written by a talented writer like him. It's really gripping.-Dr. Dilip V. GesteIrvin Yalom brings Spinoza and his philosophy to life and connects that philosophy with the apocalyptic history of Nazi Germany and Alfred Rosenberg. It's a kind of temporal alchemy and the alchemy of science fiction that Yalom was so successful at. The Spinoza Problem is very gripping, enlightening, disturbing and absolutely deeply satisfying to the reader.- Abraham Verghese, author of The Gate of TearsAs an understandable introduction to Spinoza's complex philosophy, Yalom's method offers much to its recommendation. Yalom, like a good teacher, puts forward only a few ideas at a time and proceeds from one idea to another by frequently summarizing. The dialogues he constructs provide an understanding of Spinoza's character and are a vivid explanation of his great ideas about nature, free will and logic.- Washington PostIn this impressive novel, Irvin D. Yalom shaped the plot around Rosenberg's obsession with Spinoza the Jew, aka the anti-Semite. In this striking and informative story, he draws clear parallels between the intellectual and personal lives of these two very different men. What makes Yalom's novels so popular is his ability to make complex ideas and theories understandable. The Spinoza Problem offers a deep look at the dangers inherent in the search for wisdom and the dangers that fall to those brave or stupid enough to attempt to live a philosophical life.- Tucson Citizen Show more
