Beskrivning
This book presents a comprehensive exploration of the construct of personality through a variety of lenses, both in theory and clinical practice. Part I focuses on theory, presenting insights from the perspectives of anthropology, psychoanalysis, neuroscience, the neurodiversity paradigm, political empowerment, and Gestalt therapy. Part II focuses on the different dimensions of personality, each explored from everyday “normal” experience through to psychopathology and personality disorders, presenting sociocultural, historical, and nosological considerations, illustrated by clinical cases. Part III concludes the book with further considerations and guidelines for therapists. With a broad theoretical base and clear clinical examples, this is key reading for all psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and Gestalt therapists who wish to deepen their understanding of the role of personality.

Recensioner i media

"This book doesn’t just deserve to be in the libraries of every psychotherapist, especially Gestalt therapists; it should be the study book and “bedside” reference for anyone who wants to improve their clinical practice.With two clearly differentiated parts, the first, with the collaboration of several authors, provides the ground on which to understand and assimilate the second, more practical part in which Gestalt therapists Michela Gecele and Gianni Francesetti describe how to think and intervene in the psychotherapeutic process taking into account not only our basic field-based theory but also the personality disorders that affect Western society today. Practical examples help to better understand their proposals."Carmen Vázquez Bandin, clinical psychologist and Gestalt therapist."This book impressively demonstrates how diagnosis in psychotherapy can align with the Greek origin of the word—knowing thoroughly. However, it does so without objectifying or dehumanizing clients, adopting a radically different perspective that regards both clients and therapists as parts of the situation they cocreate together. In this way, they can rigorously get to know each other—as well as the field conditions that shape who they become. Thus, exhaustive knowing and respect for the clients’ dignity can go hand in hand."Frank-M. Staemmler, Ph.D., psychologist and Gestalt therapist.
