Description
Lectures on Violence, Perversion and Delinquency by David Howell Morgan and Stan Ruszczynski is a comprehensive guide to understanding and working with individuals who exhibit violent, perverse, or delinquent behaviour. This volume presents the theoretical underpinnings of psychoanalytic thought in addressing these complex issues, alongside practical clinical work with adults and adolescents. The book covers topics such as paedophilia, compulsive use of internet pornography, and transsexuality, providing valuable insights for professionals working in mental health services and private practice. The Portman Clinic's approach to treating patients who have crossed the boundary from fantasy and impulse to action is also explored, highlighting the importance of understanding the underlying psychological dynamics at play. This book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to develop a deeper understanding of personality disorders and the complex issues surrounding violence, perversion, and delinquency.
