Bemerkung:

Sehr gutes Ex. - Englisch. // 'Given the prominence in the Western cultural imagination of such victims of betrayal as Oedipus and Jesus, and given Freud's own sense of betrayal by the likes of Adler, Jung, Rank and others, it is surprising that this topic has received so little attention in the psychoanalytic literature. Perhaps the theme of betrayal has been just too close to home. Salman Akhtar's illuminating essay on the compulsion to betray and the need to be betrayed forms the centerpiece of this collection of insightful papers that approach this important topic from developmental, literary and clinical perspectives. Donald L. Carveth, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Sociology and Social and Political Thought at York University, Toronto; Director, Toronto Institute of Psychoanalysis // 'With characteristic poignancy and poeticism, Salman Akhtar and his contributors signify betrayal, mine its phenomenology, decipher its scars, and formulate the fixations and transmissions patterned in its wake. Incisive and broadly humane, these essays lead us to sites of corruption and the particular ways they "pierce the veils of our innocent reliance". Read this book and wander through the realms of human treachery. Though often disturbing, you will be a better clinician for it.'
