Its expository value has been greatly enhanced by careful editing, with the result that the author's ideas are available in a form that can be readily assimilated ... Rosenfeld's approach to the treatment of psychoses is an individual one, and this book is a valuable and coherent contribution to its understanding.\"\u003c\/em\u003e - \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBritish Journal of Medical Psychology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements. \u003cstrong\u003ePart One: Introduction. \u003c\/strong\u003eA Psychoanalytic Approach to the Treatment of Psychosis. \u003cstrong\u003ePart Two: The Analyst's Contribution to Successful and Unsuccessful Treatment.\u003c\/strong\u003e Some Therapeutic and Anti-therapeutic Factors in the Functioning of the Analyst.
