Untitled edit
this looks like his official bio just transferred into 3rd person - NPOV
The article is inconsistent in perspective, changing from 3rd person to 1st and back again several times - DEA
This is mighty strange. Is the author trying to give the impression that Yalom himself wrote this? It just would be too stupid. - Atzbacher, april 30, 2006.
The original form was in first person edit
Check out the bio at http://www.yalom.com/. How can this be corrected?
Possible edits edit
The POV (point of view)of the section varies and it seems to read like a publicity blurb. I am not sure how appropriate it is to have an entry in Wikipedia written in the first person that is not enclosed in quotes. It is too close to his official biography off the other website to really be considered a completely different document.
I'd be willing to make some changes in the next few weeks so it is a little more well-rounded and POV is consistent.

John Jay College Relevance? edit
There's a lot that could be done to this article, but I think the fact that the John Jay College refrence reads as being particularly absurd, particularly as--at least to my mind--the college is not known as a center of clinical training in psychology. The formulation of existential psychodynamics has affected the corpus of cognitive therapy in the last 25 years... Tychoish —Preceding comment was added at 04:25, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
