Creative Dimensions of Suffering is an intriguing combination of psychiatry and spirituality that illustrates the power of creativity to treat suffering. An examination of the lives of many famous artists who suffered gives insight into how they dealt with their adversity through creativity. The author describes the courage of many other well-known figures who overcame their suffering and emerge victorious over daunting odds. Finally, drawing on principles found in the teachings of the Baha'i Faith, Dr. Ghadirian attempts to explain suffering, its place in human society, and how it can lead us to a closer, happier relationship with God, as well as a better relationship with God, ourselves and others. A. M. Ghadirian, M.D., is a professor at McGill University's Faculty of Medicine and an emeritus physician of McGill University Health Centre.
