Riassunto:

""Disorders of Character: Persistent Enuresis, Juvenile Delinquency, and Psychopathic Personality"" by Joseph J. Michaels is a comprehensive book that delves into the causes, symptoms, and treatment of three distinct but related disorders. The first disorder discussed is persistent enuresis, or bedwetting, which is a common problem among children but can persist into adulthood. The book explores the psychological and physiological factors that contribute to this condition and offers various treatment options.The second disorder covered is juvenile delinquency, which refers to criminal or antisocial behavior exhibited by young people. Michaels examines the various factors that contribute to delinquent behavior, including family dysfunction, peer pressure, and social inequality. He also discusses the different approaches to treating juvenile delinquency, such as family therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and community-based programs.The third disorder discussed is psychopathic personality, which is characterized by a lack of empathy, impulsivity, and a disregard for social norms. Michaels explores the various theories of psychopathy, including genetic and environmental factors, and discusses the challenges of treating individuals with this disorder.Throughout the book, Michaels draws on his extensive clinical experience and research to provide a detailed and nuanced understanding of these disorders. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an invaluable resource for mental health professionals, students, and anyone interested in understanding these complex disorders.""Additional Contributor Arthur Steinberg.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
