The Doctor Is In! America's best-loved therapist, Dr. Ruth, is known
for her wise counsel on all matters of the heart. Here she shares
private stories from her past and her present, and her insights into
living life to the fullest, at any age.
Everyone knows Dr. Ruth as the most famous and trusted sex therapist,
but few people know she narrowly escaped death from the Holocaust, was
raised in an orphanage in Switzerland, or that she was a sniper during
Israel's War of Independence. After years spent as a student in Paris,
Dr. Ruth came to America dreaming of a new life though never expecting
the dramatic turns that would take place. And at the age of
eighty-seven, she is as spirited as ever.
Through intimate and funny stories, Dr. Ruth sheds light on how she's
learned to live a life filled with joie de vivre. And she shows readers

success, all while nourishing an intellectual and emotional spark, and,
above all, having fun! Hilarious, inspiring, and profound, The Doctor
Is In will change the way you think about life and love, in all their
limitless possibilities.
