From Library Journal
Laing, author of Sanity, Madness, and the Family ( LJ 11/15/65) and The Politics of Experience ( LJ 6/1/67), was a Scottish psychiatrist best known for his revolutionary theory regarding schizophrenia. In 1981, Russell and Laing entered into co-counseling with each other. These sessions were carefully documented, with the ultimate aim of writing a book about the experience. Unfortunately, contrary to what the media would have us believe, most of what occurs during psychotherapy can appear mundane, having significance only to its participants. This book is no exception. Laing's legendary charisma does not come across, making Russell's hero worship difficult to understand. Recommended only for large psychology collections or where Laing is in demand.
