“To learn the intricacies of watch-making, one goes to an expert watchmaker – watches how he works, listens to his explanations, discovers his strategies and his singular insights. And if one wishes to gain some understanding of the intricacies of human development and unravel the riddles of mature relationships, here is the book to read! Paul Dunion shares what can only be called wisdom—gained in years of helping people understand themselves and the complexities of their interactions. Not a book of abstract theory, or an anthology of anecdotes, this volume is a collection of perceptive hypotheses concerning the nature of human personality, both derived from and applied in actual therapeutic settings.”
