Erotic Anger

In this first English translation of the best known work of one of the world's leading psychoanalyst, your friends and neighbours are on the couch. Gerard Pommier brings together a number of case studies of his male and female patients whose sexual activites are bound in aggressive behaviour, and he suggests ways in which their anger may be understood and focused to a positive end. In this deeply enlightening and powerfully disturbing book, Pommier explores why violence (verbal or physical) is so often a pre condition for sexual enjoyment.
