About The Book
In the quest for identity and healing, what belongs to the humanities and what to clinical psychology?
Ginette Paris uses cogent and passionate argument as well as stories from patients to teach us to accept that the human psyche seeks to destroy relationships and lives as well as to sustain them. This is very hard to accept which is why, so often, the body has the painful and dispiriting job of showing us what our psyche refuses to see.
In jargon-free language, the author describes her own story of taking a turn downwards and inwards in the search for a metaphorical personal ‘death’. If this kind of mortality is not attended to, then more literal bodily ailments and actual death itself can result.
Paris engages with one of the main dilemmas of contemporary psychology and psychotherapy: how to integrate findings and insights from neuroscience and medicine into an approach to healing founded upon activation of the imagination. At present, she demonstrates, what is happening is damaging to both science and imagination.
