Unbearable Affect
A Guide to the Psychotherapy of Psychosis
(Author) David Garfield"Unbearable Affect" is that rarest of literary gems, a work of genuine and profound scientific merit that also has a deeply moving story to tell. It traces the progress of a fictional young psychiatrist, Tony Potter, as he immerses himself in the lives and psyches of patients who suffer from the worst kinds of mental torment. Dr. Potters clinical encounters demonstrate that affect lies at the center of psychosis and must, therefore, be the focus of any meaningful course of psychoanalysis or psychotherapy.
