The breakdown of our ability to handle complex social problems can be traced to a breakdown within ourselves.

The breakdown of our ability to handle complex social problems can be traced to a breakdown within ourselves. Unlike Eastern societies, which emphasize the inner spiritual being, our Western society emphasizes the manipulation of our external environment. The rapid pace of life today... accompanied by relentless change... gives us the feeling that we are losing control of our lives. Christian psychiatrist Jack Westman lays out a plan for regaining that control. Most self-help books target personal well-being or personal success. Born To Belong blends scientific and religious knowledge and offers concrete help to those who want to feel vibrantly alive and in control of their lives. Dr. Westman shows how personal well-being and success depend upon our knowledge of our inner world and its connection to our outer world. He shows how the solitude of meditation is the spring-board for a productive life... and how inner peace depends upon a fulfilling life. We are restless, lonely, and unfulfilled until we discover our true selves and realize we are born to belong to the human family and to care for God's creation. Dr. Jack C. Westman, M.D., M.S., is an Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin Medical School. He has devoted his professional life to helping parents rear their children and fulfill their own personal needs as well. In his work and in his own family life he has confronted questions about the meaning and purpose of life. He believes that facing and answering these questions are the keys to living a fulfilling life. Dr. Westman has written over 120 professional articles and is the author of several books including Individual Differences In Children, Handbook Of Learning Disabilities, and Child Advocacy. He is the Editor of Child Psychiatry and Human Development and has been the President of the American Association of Psychiatric Services for Children and the Multidisciplinary Academy of Clinical Education. He is co-chair of the Human Family Board of Bethel Lutheran Church in Madison, Wisconsin.
