Description
Alienation in Perversions by Masud Khan and Mohammed Masud Raza Khan explores the concept of perversion formation through clinical and theoretical insights. Building on the work of Sigmund Freud, who identified alienation as a key issue in Western cultures, this book delves into the ways in which individuals become disconnected from themselves and their desires. The authors argue that perverts create an impersonal object between their desire and their partner, leading to a disconnection from both themselves and the desired object. This phenomenon is explored through case studies and theoretical analysis, providing a nuanced understanding of perversion formation. With its wealth of clinical and theoretical insights, Alienation in Perversions makes a significant contribution to our understanding of human psychology and mental health.
