"Searles' writing is a delight -- straightforward, with a minimum of jargon. The portraits of patients he draws are vivid, humorous, and compelling. His greatest contribution has been, perhaps, his illumination of the basic humanity of the patient and the common ground between patient and therapist. This volume represents the wisest and most humane of what contemporary psychoanalysis has to offer, exemplified in the work of one of its most original contemporary practitioners." -- Library Journal
