Lou Marinoff

[4] He is Professor of Philosophy and Asian Studies at The City College of New York[5] and founding President of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association.

[6] He is known for his books, including Plato Not Prozac, Therapy for the Sane, The Middle Way and The Power of Dao, which focus on applying philosophical concepts to address everyday challenges.

[6] The title of his thesis, published in 1992, was Strategic interaction in the Prisoner's Dilemma: A game-theoretic dimension of conflict research.

Marinoff's approach centers on the belief that many issues arise not from emotional or chemical imbalances, but from philosophical uncertainties.

[14] He believes that many modern problems, such as stress, confusion, and moral dilemmas, can be addressed through philosophical reflection rather than medical or psychiatric interventions.
