5.0 out of 5 stars An evocative and clear book that simplifies a complex topic, June 19, 1999
This review is from: The Theory And Practice Of Self Psychology (Hardcover)
The authors write with precision and clarity. They explicate a complex topic systematically and render theoretical constructs immediately useful. Numerous clinical examples add clarity and life to the theoretical aspects of their presentation. This book is readable by practicing clinicians and by the interested non-professional. As a post-graduate lecturer and psychoanalytic supervisor, I have found this book to be an excellent introduction to Kohut's Self Psychology primarily due to the authors' ability to hold the readers interest, to make difficult concepts clear, and to stay close to Kohut's the original ideas. This book is also useful as a refesher for experienced practitioners and as a good prerequisite for more more advanced and / or specialized study.

5.0 out of 5 stars bending Time and Space to reach the Mind!, August 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Theory And Practice Of Self Psychology (Hardcover)
I purchased this book to I can understand the secret infinite reality within the grey matter of the mind. The unbreachable land of ideas and shapes. I used what I learned and started writing short stories: [..] Must see. Tales from beyond the breach.
