Review Quotes:
"This is an impressively honest attempt to address the reality of the psyche in the area of character defenses, and the authors prove that Jungian psychology is up to the job. Clinicians will find a well of empathy to refresh their understandings of the difficult personality traits some patients bring to analysis. This is a book that has the power to make a therapist who is stuck with a patient feel like sticking the course." - John Beebe, Founding Editor of The San Francisco Jung Institute Library Journal
"This book is one that could be consulted when challenging cases demand a different perspective. It would therefore be a valuable addition to the bookshelf of any experienced therapist." - Pam Marshall, Consultant Adult Psychotherapist, Eating Disorders Service, European Eating Disorders Review (16) 2008, UK
