Description
Plea for a Measure of Abnormality by Joyce Mcdougall is a thought-provoking volume that explores the complexities of the human psyche. Dr. McDougall's work delves into the inner worlds of her patients, those labelled as 'abnormal' by others, but who represent the most challenging encounters.
Through topics such as The Sexual Scene and the Anonymous Spectator, Creation and Sexual Deviation, The Psychosoma and the Psychoanalytic Process, and Plea for a Measure of Abnormality, Dr. McDougall celebrates the wide range of human difference. Her work is characterised by a commitment to questioning both her own skills and identity.
This book represents a trajectory of reflection on the author's years-long experience with her analysands, highlighting the need for ongoing self-examination in the pursuit of psychoanalytic understanding.
