The Fifty Minute Hour: A Collection of True Psychoanalytic Tales

Rating:
Summary: a true "psychological thriller!"
Review: This is a great book for anyone interested in psychoanalysis, or just the human condition. The film Pressure Point with S. Poitier was based one of the case studies in this book. Solitaire, Laura's Story, is an early account of bulimia nervosa, which was not even a diagnosis given in those days. One thing to note, however....Rebel without a Cause, another book by Lindler, is about an antisocial young man....However, it was not the basis of the James Dean movie, as one reviewer wrote.
