The American psychoanalyst Nancy McWilliams wrote this book for her psychology students who … did not choose psychoanalysis as a specialization.
The book has withstood many reprints in different countries of the world, including Russia. Not surprisingly, this is practically the only manual devoted to the psychoanalytic diagnosis of personality. The American psychoanalyst Nancy McWilliams wrote this book for her psychology students who … did not choose psychoanalysis as a specialization. Describing different personality types (narcissistic, hysterical, depressive and others), she shows their features, similarities and differences, prevailing emotions and affects, drives and defenses, the most typical relationships with other people; how a person perceives himself, how others see him … Nancy McWilliams is sure that without knowing these features, it is difficult to understand another person, and for a professional to choose the right direction in treatment and counseling.
