Narcissism and Personality Transformation

Narcissism and Personality Transformation

New

The mythological tradition depicted Narcissus as a person who excessively adored himself and denied any need for close relationships with others. For a long time, it was believed that narcissistic personality disorders were incurable due to the impermeable barrier –... narcissistic defense, which served as the main obstacle to establishing any emotional relationships between the patient and the analyst. Today, this viewpoint has fundamentally changed. In this book, the nature of narcissistic personality disorders is examined from the perspective of classical psychoanalysis and contemporary Jungian analysis. Additionally, it provides a detailed description of clinical work with such patients. The book will primarily be useful for professionals engaged in clinical practice. However, it also offers much of interest to other readers seeking to unravel the mystery of their own identity and answer the question 'Who am I?'.
