Jorge Bucay

“Losses are a part of our lives. That which we are, we have become as a result of everything that we have lost, and as a result of overcoming these losses.” (Jorge Bucay)

Jorge Bucay shows how we can properly mourn. He lays before us the many ways in which loss may manifest itself throughout our lives and shows us what it means to accept pain and to give in to grief. This is the only way, he says, of freeing ourselves from our own sadness, and of coming to realise that even after major losses, life awaits us.

Dr Jorge Bucay, born in Buenos Aires in 1949, comes from a family with Arab and Jewish roots. He studies medicine and psychoanalysis and has been successful working as a therapist. His international success is in large part, thanks to his insight into a huge variety of cultural influences and his understanding of human nature.
