Description: This collection of essays focuses on the unconscious roots of human behaviour in a range of settings: the consulting room, the small group, the workplace, the therapeutic community and the GP's surgery. The author observes that in violence there is an attack not only on the victim, but on the perpetrator's own universe of meaning and value.
Review Quotes: `There are sixteen chapters covering topics from multiple personality to `Prejudice in Poetry'... Several interesting case vignettes are featured throughout the book and add to its interest... This is a book I would ask to be stocked by the library which I use regularly at the local psychiatric hospital.'--Counselling
