A Psychodynamic View of Action and Responsibility: Clinical Studies in Subjective Experience

This new book by David Shapiro, author of the classic Neurotic Styles, throws light, from a clinical standpoint, on a subject of importance, both theoretically and for therapeutic practice, for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists, as well as for those with general interests in philosophy or psychology. A Psychodynamic View of Action and Responsibility explores the individuals experience of ownership or responsibility for what he or she does, says and even believes, and their avoidance of that experience.
