Description
Karen Horney develops a dynamic theory of neurosis in this thought-provoking work, focusing on the fundamental conflict between attitudes of "moving forward", "moving against", and "moving away from".
Unlike traditional views, Horney's theory is constructive, offering a new approach to resolving neurotic hopelessness. She argues that neurotic conflicts cannot be resolved through rational decision, but rather by changing the underlying conditions that give rise to them.
This reissue of Horney's influential work provides a fresh perspective on the nature of neurosis and its treatment, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in psychology and psychiatry.
