Table of ContentsReviews...this is a very fine, deeply impressive addition to both psychiatric and philosophical literature, as well as forging an identity of its own. It has admirable clarity and speaks much good sense. It moves at a steady pace and the large number of reflective exercises helps a reader negotiate difficult terrain. It will be of great value to students (both new and continuing) of a number of disciplines and many of its concerns should be seen as essential to any mental health practitioner. It informs but is never didactic, it encourages reflection, but is not without critique, and it does not make claims above its station. It recognizes that psychiatry is, and always has been, intimately wrapped in philosophical concepts; it does after all concern itself with some of the most fundamental questions of the human experience.
