Psychoanalyst, teacher, and scholar, Heinz Kohut was one of the
twentieth century's most important intellectuals. A rebel according
to many mainstream psychoanalysts, Kohut challenged Freudian
orthodoxy and the medical control of psychoanalysis in America. In
his highly influential book "The Analysis of the Self," Kohut
established the industry standard of the treatment of personality
disorders for a generation of analysts. This volume, best known for
its groundbreaking analysis of narcissism, is essential reading for
scholars and practitioners seeking to understand human personality
in its many incarnations.
"Kohut has done for narcissism what the novelist Charles Dickens
did for poverty in the nineteenth century. Everyone always knew
that both existed and were a problem. . . . The undoubted
originality is to have put it together in a form which carries
appeal to action."--"International Journal of Psychoanalysis"
