Rezensionen

'This is a splendid primer on the legendary work of James Masterson. In this scholarly yet accessible introduction, Loray Daws shows the chronology of his mentor's novel contributions to understanding borderline, narcissistic, and schizoid phenomena; and is able to distill with supple elegance the complex developmental and clinical theories Masterson contributed to articulating and treating disorders of the self. An essential read for those working with character pathology. '

'James Masterson, MD., created foundational concepts in understanding and treating personality disorders. In authoring this book, Loray Daws, a preeminent practitioner of the Masterson approach, provides essentials. Masterson will stand in history as one of psychotherapy's luminous voices. His work guides my practice.'

'Dr. Daws offer's far more than an introductory primer, this book is a passionate detailed and remarkable rendering of the breadth and scope of James Masterson's significant psychoanalytic theoretical/clinically contributions (along with Masterson's associates) coupled with the author's compelling story of a clinician's journey to find the deepest understanding of the human experience. Dr. Daws fluidly manages the diverse notions of psychoanalytic developmental/object relations theory with an eye toward blending theory, with true-to-life clinical examples, displaying that rare combination of astute technical acumen while sustaining approachable humanistic observations of the very nature of psychoanalytic treatment.'
