The Language of Perversion and the Language of Love

More about the book

Exploring the historical and psychological implications of treating individuals as objects, Dr. Sheldon Bach delves into the concept of perversion in human relationships. He argues that this treatment stems from a lack of whole object love, affecting both sexual and character disorders. The book examines the complexities of self and other, subjectivity and objectivity, and the dynamics of male and female interactions. Through this lens, Bach provides insight into the paradoxes that underpin both mental illness and emotional well-being, highlighting the profound impact on human connections.
