Summary: Case studies lead into an in-depth dissection
Review: Experiences Of Depression: Theoretical, Clincial, And Research Perspectives by psychiatrist and academician Sidney J. Blatt draws upon the author's 30 years of clinical experience and research into the nature of depression and the life experiences that shape it. Case studies lead into an in-depth dissection of the psychological dimensions of depression. Categorizing depression into anaclitic depression, which comes from feelings of loneliness, and introjective depression, from feelings of failure and worthlessness, Experienced Of Depression goes on to explore a widening range of assessment and treatment tools and methods to help those in greatest need. A scholarly, contemplative and clinical work researched in-depth and intended especially for advanced students and experts in the field.
