''In this excellent, concise volume, Rothenberg reports his current views on this fascinating subject . . . Well argued and judicious . . . I cannot recommend this book too highly.''--Journal of the American Medical Association.''This intriguing theory will no doubt provoke lively debate both inand outside professional circles. For lay readers, however, the book's real pleasure lies in the substantive analyses of Sylvia Plath, August Strindberg, Emily Dickenson, Tennessee Williams, Eugene O'Neill, and William Faulkner.''--Wilson Library Bulletin
