Review for the original edition:
“Edward Glover is reputed to be one of the foremost psychoanalysts of Britain. Here … in nine chapters he demonstrates how none of the many attempts at altering the basic formulations of Freud has succeeded. Dr Glover includes descriptions of ‘Grades of Ego-Differentiation’, perversions, and a concept of dissociation … Dr Glover’s use of English is one of the most thoroughly precise and rich this reviewer has ever read.” – Library Journal
