Description
The seven psychoanalytic case histories in this book are about human transgression and the underlying themes of sex and power. They reveal as much about the personality and methods of their author as about the patients themselves. In contrast to the traditional orthodoxy of Freudian analysis, which favours a neutral stance on the part of the analyst, his style of working is avowedly personal. The result here is a series of dramatic human encounters portraying the pains and passions of the patient, and the exacting but fulfilling role of the analyst. It is a book which shows how the challenge and ordeals of the psychoanalytic process, the caring and sharing that lies at its heart, can help both patient and analyst towards the elusive goal of their own awakenings. Prince Masud Khan served for many years as Editor of Books for the International Psycho-Analytic Library and as Associate Editor of the "International Journal of Psychoanalysis".
