Seller's Description:
Very good in Very good jacket. 259, [5] pages. DJ has crease in front flap. Author's Note. Foreword by James S. Grotstein. Glossary. Name Index. Subject Index. Inscribed by the author and his wife on fep. Inscription reads 4/17/02 For Merri & Walter, My deepest appreciation for your kindness & caring. Love Care & Virginia. Carl Goldberg, Ph.D. is the author of twelve books and 170 shorter publications, the editor-for-the-Americas of the International Journal of Psychotherapy, and is on the editorial boards of the American Journal of Psychotherapy and the Journal of Adult Development. Based on 40 years of clinical experience as a humanistic psychoanalyst, the author uses case studies of dangerous people from all walks of life to demonstrate that even those who have led destructive lives can be restored to more hopeful, compassionate, and responsible lives. The book provides insights about the most troubling aspects of human nature and addresses social and psychological challenges to psychoanalysis in the next century. The case studies involve a prostitute, an adolescent murderer, a client whose rage translated into violent action, a client who assumed another identity, a client who arranged to have her husband murdered, a suspected rapist, and other violent persons. The author considers psychoanalysis and moral responsibility; the psychology of self-deception, consciousness, and memory; psychological defenses as emotional strategies; and the role of shame in constructive behavior. Murder, rape, and atrocity are serious social problems. Yet, despite their persistence, the reasons for deeply destructive behavior still elude contemporary psychological theories. Based on his four decades of clinical experience, humanistic psychoanalyst Dr. Carl Goldberg uses case studies of apparently irredeemable and dangerous people from all walks of life to dramatically demonstrate that even those who have led destructive lives can escape evil and be restored to more hopeful, compassionate, and responsible lives. Crucial to a probing examination and successful treatment of the dark side of life, Dr. Goldberg shows in his case studies, is addressing important psychological and philosophical issues ignored by contemporary psychologists and psychoanalysts. The Evil We Do is a book full of telling insights about the most troubling aspects of human nature-knowledge that is essential if American society is ever to deal effectively with the violence that plagues it. The discussion of destructive behavior also looks at the dilemmas of American society, primary and secondary factors that promote destructive behavior, and basic emotional communication for intimacy and interpersonal connectedness.
