On Being Normal and Other Disorders: A Manual for Clinical Psychodiagnostics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781855756885)

Features a critical evaluation of the contemporary DSM-diagnostic that shows that the lack of reference to an updated governing metapsychology impinges on the therapeutic value of the DSM categories. This book sketches out the foundations of such a metapsychology by combining a Freudo-Lacanian approach with contemporary empirical research.
