Oedipal paradigms in collision

More about the book

Reviews Freud's famous construction and selections of works relating to it from various schools of psychology and psychiatry since then. Among the perspectives are some elementary contributions from ego psychology, personal reflections on the ethos of Genesis as a possible battle against narcissism, an elementary model of Oedipal development, empirical studies, and a paradigm in conflict describing a divided mind in a schismatic world.
