Reviews

...this book is of immense value to any clinician who seeks to grasp and address the nature of the destructive mystery that appears to shroud the omnipotently functioning mind of the psychotic individual. It provides conceptual tools and a range of technical and humane strategies for engaging with the patient despite the inordinate obstacles faced by both parties. That these obstacles may, over time and with sufficient skill and patience, be overcome gives renewed hope to clinicians working to ameliorate the plight of this most damaged, and often neglected, group of patients. - The International Journal of Psychoanalysis
