Reviews and Endorsements
'In Damaged Bonds, Michael Eigen once again offers a uniquely vital vision of psychic life, centered on the paradox that that which makes us most alive and connected also renders us most vulnerable and fragile. Reading Eigen is an experience unlike that of reading any other psychoanalyst because he is able to speak from within an individual's struggle with fear and desire, while drawing on the deepest insights of psychoanalytic theory. Listening to his voice, compassionate and wise, transforms us - a voice that transcends the conventional Them and Us of therapist and patient, it takes us straight into the I and Thou of recognition, where self and other suffer and learn together.'
