Albert Ellis' Autobiography

Hi Friends!

I checked on amazon.com and Albert Ellis' recently published autobiography "All-out" is not currently available there. Can you give information about a reliable source from where it may be purchased?

Thanks. ~Sanjay~

Dr. Albert Ellis, creator of Psychology's Cognitive Revolution, changed Psychology and Psychotherapy forever in early 1950s when, disappointed with slowness and frequent ineffectiveness of Freudian psychoanalysis, he emphasized the role thoughts play in creating emotions and behaviors. His form of therapy, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which he initially called Rational Emotive Therapy (RET), is evidence-based and is the foundation of all Cognitive Therapies.

Author of more than 75 books and 1200 articles, Albert Ellis is generally recognized as the world's greatest psychologist and psychotherapist. Among psychologists, he is rated as being more influential than Jung, Freud, or Skinner. More psychotherapists practice his form of therapy than any other.

Millions of individuals have benefited from Albert Ellis' teachings, which, more than psychotherapy, constitute a comprehensive philosophy of living.

Considered by us to be the greatest thinker of all times on causes and cures of human suffering, Albert Ellis faced great adversities in last several years of his life. He was removed from the Board of Albert Ellis Institute, the Institute which he founded and supported all his life. Bravely fighting serious illnessess and injustices, Dr. Ellis left us on July 24, 2007.

Dr. Albert Ellis was a living embodiment of his own philosophy. He tried to apply his theories to himself as honestly as he could, making himself a product of his own ideas as his ideas were a product of him.
