Author(s) : Fiona Ross

Reviews and Endorsements

'In a welcome development of her book, Dr Ross here describes in detail the developments in her thoughtful understanding of 'perversion' as it can be understood in a contemporary Jungian analytic context.'
- Hazel Robinson, Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP) Analyst and Editor of the SAP Monograph Series

‘The publication of this book is most welcome and it deserves to be hailed as a substantial contribution not only to this subject but also to the applicability of comparative psychoanalytic theorisation. The book addresses an important field that seems to have been clouded by clichés rather than conceptual clarity, and this is what the author introduces with incisive perception, competence and creativity. By releasing the term from its asphyxiating sexual connotation, the book develops an original framework within which to comprehend the wider phenomena of perversion. Using innovative methodology, it grounds the conceptual analysis onto real life biographies. Through a carefully crafted extension of the Jungian theories, the author succeeds in developing a new perspective to view afresh phenomena that, especially in our times, require sound understanding. Strongly recommended!’
