Reviews

We work above all with feelings, so it is remarkable how undeveloped Freud's theory of emotion was. This book integrates everything we have learnt in the intervening century, in a new theory that clinicians will find immediately useful and practical - Mark Solms, Research Chair of the IPA Living near a river, my parents told me to keep away from the maelstrom. I, however, invite you to dive into Daniel Helderman's Maelstrom model of basic emotions. He stirs up familiar psychodynamic concepts and connects them with contemporary insights into personality, mind, and consciousness. This book is a stimulating read and might challenge you to reconsider your way of working with emotions and the self. - Dr. Frans Schalkwijk, psychoanalyst and professor (of special education) at the University of Amsterdam
