Sinossi
The Divided Self, l'innovativa esplorazione della natura della follia di RD Laing, ha illuminato la natura della malattia mentale e reso i misteri della mente comprensibili a un vasto pubblico. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1960, questo lavoro spartiacque mirava a rendere comprensibile la follia e, nel farlo, ha rivoluzionato il modo in cui percepiamo la malattia mentale. Utilizzando casi di studio di pazienti con cui aveva lavorato, lo psichiatra RD Laing ha sostenuto che la psicosi non è una condizione medica, ma un risultato del ''sé diviso'', o della tensione tra le due persone dentro di noi: una la nostra identità autentica e privata e l'altra il falso sé ''sano'' che presentiamo al mondo. L'approccio radicale di Laing alla follia ha offerto una ricca analisi esistenziale dell'alienazione personale e lo ha reso una figura di culto negli anni '60, ma il suo lavoro è stato più significativo per il suo atteggiamento umano, che ha rimesso il paziente al centro del trattamento. Include un'introduzione del professor Anthony S. David. ''Uno degli psicoterapeuti più influenti del ventesimo secolo'' Guardian ''Laing ha sfidato l'ortodossia psichiatrica del suo tempo . Un'icona della controcultura degli anni '60'' The Times.
