Reich's classic work on the development and treatment of human character disorders, first published in 1933. As a young clinician in the 1920s, Wilhelm Reich expanded psychoanalytic resistance into the more inclusive technique of character analysis, in which the sum total of typical character attitudes developed by an individual as a blocking against emotional excitations became the object of treatment. These encrusted attitudes functioned as an "armor," which Reich later found to exist simultaneously in chronic muscular spasms.

Seller's Description:
Very good. Spine is tight, but has some cosmetic creasing. Clean, unmarked interior. A few areas of light soiling to the edges and some toning to the covers. An essential title by the discoverer of orgone, whose work was famously banned by opposing governments. Leading up to WWII, German newspapers decried him as a communist, Jew, and advocate of free love, and the Nazi Party prohibited distribution of his publications in 1933, causing him to emigrate to the US; more than two decades later, following an FDA injunction, six tons of Reich's books, journals, and papers were burned by officials at New York's Gansevoort incinerator. 'He was a nineteenth-century mind who came crashing into twentieth-century America, ' said Reich's son, Peter, of his father. 'And boom! ' 545 pp. Comparative Religion.
