- Summary:
- "The Rough Beast: Psychoanalysis in Everyday Life is not a textbook. It provides an accessible guide to what, why and how psychoanalytic ideas are useful in everyday life. It is an attempt to show rather than to tell. And to offer sympathetic, but challenging, food for thought. The book will be of great interest to those readers interested in finding out what analytic ideas have to offer in making sense of themselves and, for those who wonder whether to seek out analytic help, what they might expect"-- Provided by publisher.
