Maisel has applied his training and experience as a therapist to the problems encountered by artists and performers. Here, he addresses many of these problems, including the idea of talent, the artist's personality, creative blocks, and aloneness. Most striking are his self-help ameliorative strategies for coping. While his book is not for everyone, it should be required reading for anyone considering a major and/or career in the arts. In fact, Maisel's "artist's ten commandments," a recapitulation of important themes, have a certain universality. Recommended for academic theater or creative arts collections.
