Notes, bibliography, index. Description: Includes a section of black and white p photo plates. The publisher's blurb reads: ''In the golden age of 'talk therapy', psychotherapists saw no limit to what they could do. Believing they had already explained the origins of war, homosexuality, anti-Semitism, and a host of neurotic ailments, they set out to conquer mental illness. Author Edward Dolnick focuses on the battles against schizophrenia, autism, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Armed with only words and the best of intentions, psychoanalysts set out to vanquish these enemies. They achieved the worst of outcomes. This account uses the voices of therapists as well as those of patients and their loved ones to describe the controversial methods used to treat the mentally ill, and their heartbreaking consequences. A gripping tale of hubris, arrogant pride, and terrible heartbreak, this combines the immediacy of journalism with the depth of history.''

Not price clipped (25.00). Photo illustrated. Review copy (?) with promotional materials from publisher laid-in. A study of the failures of Freudian therapy, especially with respect to schizophrenia, autism, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. From the Dust Jacket: "Armed with only words and the best of intentions, they achieved he worst of outcomes... Clear, dramatic, and authoritative, Madness on the Couch uses the voices of therapists as well as those of patients and their loved ones to describe the controversial methods used to treat the mentally ill, and their heartbreaking consequences.

Description:
New York: Simon & Schuster, 1998. Book. As New. Hard. First Printing.. It is an age-old battle and it is not resolved yet. But in the ever-oscillating rivalry between psychology and biology, psychology always has one built-in advantage: it alone offers an escape from the randomness of fate. Biology offers no such consolation. Enter the age of psychoanalysis - where conditions such as schizophrenia, autism and obsessive-compulsive disorder can be cured through "talk therapy." Here the author uses the voices of therapists as well as those of their patients and loved ones to describe the controversial methods used to treat the mentally ill, and their heartbreaking consequences. Pages clean and crisp bind is tight; book appears unread; dj not clipped and encased in Brodart book protector; 368 pages; Size: 8 Vo.
