Romantic Science and the Experience of Self - Transatlantic Crosscurrents From William James to Oliver Sacks

First published in 1999. The work of five influential figures in twentieth-century transatlantic intellectual history forms the basis of this engaging interdisciplinary study of romantic science. In this book, Martin Halliwell constructs a tradition of romantic science by indicating points of theoretical intersection in the thought of William James (American philosopher); Otto Rank (Austrian psychoanalyst); Ludwig Binswanger (Swiss psychiatrist); Erik Erikson (Danish/German psychologist); and Oliver Sacks (British neurologist).
