5.0 out of 5 stars The single most important book on Schreber, September 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: In Defense of Schreber: Soul Murder and Psychiatry (Hardcover)
Lothane has brilliantly researched the most written-about of all psychiatric patients. The author has webbed together a fascinating account from multiple perspectives, including historical, legal, psychoanalytic, political, and medical. It is the first source to consult about Schreber. Lothane has painstakingly researched his subject, has made important historical discoveries about Schreber and his times, and has given us a valuable commentary on issues such as diagnosis, Freud's formulation of paranoia based on the Memoirs, and the influence of Schreber's famous father. It is indispensable reading for anyone interested in this fascinating man and his work.
