Product Description

Synopsis

This volume follows the successful analysis and hypnosis of a criminal psychopath, Harold. In full transcriptions of their 46 sessions, Lindner takes his patient into the depths and recesses of his childhood memories. Plumbing the free-associative monologues for clues to unlock the causes of Harold's criminal behaviour, Lindner portrays a man cut off from himself and unable to attach to others. Following the threads uncovered in the sessions, Lindner reveals to Harold long-hidden incidents from his infancy and childhood that served to propel him toward a troubled and chaotic adulthood, full of armed robbery, break-ins and random sexual encounters. With care and diligence, patient and analyst begin to excavate events from Harold's childhood and reconstruct them as a foundation for analysis, allowing Harold to confront his demons.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scary Stuff, 10 Mar 2008
By Thomas N. Orchard "Tom Orchard" (Manchester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the psychological study that inspired Nick Ray's 1955 film 'Rebel Without A Cause' starring James Dean. It concerns Harold who is a juvenile delinquent par excellence. Harold is a thief, a liar, a rapist and even incestuous towards his little sister. Dr Lindner manages to find out what makes Harold tick without sensationalising the material. It is not an easy read for Harold really is a freak but is a rewarding one nevertheless for the general reader as well as psychology students.
