Reviews

Donald Moss, a courageous and gifted psychoanalyst and writer, succeeds in taking imaginative leaps whilst keeping his feet firmly on the ground. He encourages us to accompany him 'beyond the obvious', as he illuminates a wide range of issues, clinical cultural and social. The book argues effectively for the ongoing relevance of psychoanalytic thought in the contemporary world. -Irma Brenman Pick, Distinguished Fellow of the British Psychoanalytic Society.
