A work that goes well beyond dealing systematically with the theory
and treatment of difficult-to-treat patients suffering from
narcissistic behavior disorders. It is also a significant
contribution to the fundamentals of self psychology by a creative,
productive, and disciplined thinker.-Paul H. Ornstein, M.D. In this
exciting and uncommonly lucid volume, Goldberg presents his view
from self psychology in a tone of open engagement with other
leading analytic thinkers of past and present. As a result, the
reader feels more a participant in an exciting debate than an
observer in a dusty lecture hall. Those who have turned away from
early self psychology will be rewarded by this incisive application
of the best of self psychological thought used to enrich prior
psychoanalytic understanding.-Warren S. Poland, M.D. Clinicians
puzzling over the mysterious set of behaviors termed in our field
'perversions' will be delighted and relieved to discover this
newest book by Arnold Goldberg, M.D.In this volume, which is
arguably the most innovative extension of Kohut's clinical theory
published to date, Goldberg demonstrates that an understanding of
the concept of a split, divided self can be expanded and deepened
to facilitate a meliorative approach to these narcissistic behavior
disorders, illustrating his thesis with clear examples from his
practice. We predict that with the publication of this book, no one
will be able to treat, or even to think about, perversions without
accessing the author's powerful and persuasive formulations.-Morton
Shane, M.D., and Estelle Shane, Ph.D., Co-Presidents, Institute of
Contemporary Psychoanalysis
