Rezensionen

"It is amazing to read such a deep understanding of Chinese thinking from a Western psychoanalyst. He provides us with evidence of the remarkable ways psychoanalsyts think: Showing us things we had not seen before, exploring things in ways one would never have dared imagine, providing us with a new experience, with new discoveries, and the pleasure of this way of learning." - Prof. Dr. Yunping Yang, Psychoanalytic psychotherapist & Psychiatrist, Beijing Anding Hospital, Affiliated to Capital Medical University, Beijing, China

"It is astonishing not only how much the author knows about the Chinese mind but how he really shows a new perspective on the differences between China's mind and the Western mind!" - Li Yawen, Psychiatrist, Beijing Anding Hospital, China

"The book is likely to interest psychoanalysts who want to know more about their discipline's ties to Eastern thought, and Sinologists who are interested in identifying parallels between their studies and psychoanalysis. ... In any case, it is a short and entertaining book, so it is worth at least a cursory look." - Louis Berger, Metapsychology (Vol. 17, No. 23)
