Zusammenfassung

Offers a different approach to the problem of anxiety. This book suggests that our fantasies offer the key to understanding our anxieties and vice versa. It also contains clinical examples of fantasy/anxiety interactions. It puts dialectics 'centre stage' in terms of understanding the patient's discourse.
