Reviews and Endorsements
‘I think this is a brilliant book, both clinically and theoretically. The case descriptions include a level of detail of the working of countertransference not found in the writing of any other analyst writing today. The depth of this work with psychotic patients, in this case the psychosis of hypochondria, is without peer. The
definition of countertransference contained in this book may be the most clearly thought out, theoretically inclusive, and clinically useful that I have ever read.’
— Thomas H. Ogden, psychoanalyst and author of The Parts Left Out: A Novel and Creative Readings: Essays on Seminal Analytic Works
