{"product_id":"9780241291771","title":"On Wanting to Change by Adam Phillips","description":"From the UK's foremost literary psychoanalyst, a dazzling new book on the universal urge to change our lives.   We live in a world in which we are invited to change - to become our best selves, through politics, or fitness, or diet, or therapy.   We change all the time - growing older and older - and how we think about change changes over time too.   We want to think of our lives as progress myths - as narratives of positive personal growth - at the same time as we inevitably age and suffer setbacks.   So there are the stories we tell about change, and there are the changes we actually make - and they don't always go, or come, together . . . This sparkling book is about that fact.;  160 pages; Published: 18\/03\/2021\u003cdiv class=\"goodreadr\" data-isbn=\"9780241291771\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56457008677246,"sku":"9780241291771","price":19.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0913\/1298\/0350\/files\/9780241291771.jpg?v=1761330600","url":"https:\/\/it-book.co.uk\/products\/9780241291771","provider":"IT-Book","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
