Why normal is the problem Roz Carroll REFERENCES INDEXReviewsWhat is Normal? is a really brilliant resource for therapists - or anyone - who has serious doubts about the set of ideas and ideals that passes itself off as 'normality'. This book somehow manages to be simultaneously comforting and challenging, presenting a stunning array of provocations to anyone who thinks there's anything normal about 'normality'; Anouchka Grose, Writer and Psychoanalyst, author of A Guide to Eco-Anxiety and Are You Considering Therapy? ; This volume, a compilation of insightful, thoughtful and highly original explorations, benignly and compassionately subverts the concepts of normal as conventional and of what we often call 'disease' as abnormal. A challenging and much-needed contribution to the psychotherapeutic literature; Gabor Mate M.D. Author, When The Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress; Roz Carroll and Jane Ryan have done an absolutely brilliant job at bringing together some of the world's most creative and intelligent psychotherapists to teach us about the complex concept of 'normality'. I have learned a very great deal from reading this beautifully written and expertly edited volume. This should be core reading for anyone interested in the idea that all people are unique individuals who cannot be categorised by conventions; Dr Estela Welldon, Hon. Consultant Psychiatrist, Forensic Psychotherapist, author of Mother, Madonna, Whore and Playing with Dynamite and Sadomasochism Solid and scholarly ... with its life-affirming personal testimonies it could also help equip us with what Gramsci called 'optimism of will'. -- Therapy Today Author InformationRoz Carroll is a relational body psychotherapist and supervisor and teaches on the MA in Integrative Psychotherapy at The Minster Centre.
