Sommario/riassunto

'In a series of fascinating supervisory case studies Jackson draws on Kleinian concepts and Scandinavian clinical experience to show how a psychotherapeutic approach can, through a combination of empathy and sound theory, stabilise, contain, integrate and tame the unnamable terrors and compulsions of psychosis. Jackson's courage, modesty and total integrity shine through.'- Jeremy Holmes MD, University of Exeter.
