Autorenporträt
AUSTRALIAN BORN PSYCHIATRIST DR JAMES LE BAS PhD is the author of Beyond Bipolar, Ancient Realms, New Directions. As a sufferer himself, his career was awakened in a basement ward in Manilla, the first of four hospitalisations for psychosis, depression, and mania. His new book explores the role of ostracism in the determination of what he has termed the xPolar disorders and incorporates the models of Jaak Panksepp and Jeffrey Gray. In his new book he deals with the difficult issues - love, addiction, and loss, as he faces up to the mystery of mental illness, both at large and within himself, with his new mode of understanding - the Tesseract.
