Understanding Perversion in Clinical Practice

About this book

"This monograph provides a comprehensive study of the nature of perversion and the therapeutic relationship needed for treatment. Case studies and other illustrations are used throughout to illustrate aspects of perversion and notable psychoanalytic theories are detailed for greater understanding of what perversion is and how it can be treated. Female perversion is explored in a separate chapter as its manifestations contrast with those of male perversion." "Aimed primarily at trainees on psychotherapy and psychodynamic counselling courses, these compact editions will be invaluable to all who wish to learn the basics of major psychoanalytic theories from an integrated viewpoint."--BOOK JACKET.
