{"product_id":"9781416510178","title":"My American Life: From Rage to Entitlement","description":"Price M. Cobbs, M.D., coauthor, with William H. Grier, of \u003ci\u003eBlack Rage\u003c\/i\u003e -- one of the twentieth century's most profound examinations of black life in America -- has been a witness to some of the most important events in American history. \u003cbr\u003e Now, thirty years later, for the first time he reconsiders his extraordinary life and career, offering a moving account of his journey -- as one of the nation's foremost authorities in the field of psychiatry -- from rage to entitlement. \u003cbr\u003e An African American pioneer in the field of psychiatry, Dr. Cobbs in his lifetime has grown up during the Great Depression, felt the dramatic effects of World War II, and witnessed the dismantling of Jim Crow laws and the impact of \u003ci\u003eBrown vs. Board of Education\u003c\/i\u003e. He watched the rise of Martin Luther King Jr. and the heroism of Rosa Parks in the civil rights movement. He followed the life of Malcolm X and \"searched avidly for what animated the ideas beneath his fiery rhetoric.\" Every experience of his early life and education led to an auspicious partnership with a colleague, William H. Grier, who shared his convictions and the work involved in producing what the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e would call \"one of the most important books on [blacks].\" \u003cbr\u003e Written at the height of the black power movement, \u003ci\u003eBlack Rage\u003c\/i\u003e has sold over one million copies and remains a relevant study of race relations. Dr. Cobbs has lived through decades of profound social, political, and cultural transformation in America. A second-generation doctor, Cobbs has at once written a classic portrait of an amazing family and the making of a healer and community and business leader. As a psychiatrist, he has pioneered methods for studying the psychology of race and gender. So, while \u003ci\u003eMy American Life\u003c\/i\u003e is a heartfelt memoir of a loving father and husband, it is also a chronicle of the black experience in America.","brand":"Atria Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47153741758704,"sku":"9781416510178","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781416510178_p0.jpg?v=1763726325","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781416510178","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
