Analyst and author Ann Belford Ulanov draws on her years of clinical work and reflection to make the point that madness and creativity share a kinship, an insight that shakes both analysis and analyst to the core, reminding us as it does that the suffering places of the human psyche are inextricably -- and, often inexplicably -- related to the fountains of creativity, service, and even genius.

In this landmark book, Brazilian psychoanalyst, Norberto Keppe, offers a scientific study of the link between possession and psychopathology. Keppe's contention is that the disastrous idea perpetuated in both medicine and religion that strange manifestations in the human being are completely physical, and only occasionally spiritual is allowing malignant spirits free rein in their spurious influence over human beings. Keppe's innovative therapeutic perspective is that this mistake must be corrected for humankind to have any chance of returning to a normal peaceful and abundant life.

Whether you're struggling with emotions, disorders, or difficult relationships, this book offers practical solutions and exercises for restoring balance in your life.
