《书目》(Booklist)书评
Goldberg, a psychoanalyst, examines how psychiatry has traditionally treated destructive behavior, using case studies of patients he's treated to show how his profession has helped and failed such individuals. His clients include murderers, rapists, pathological liars, and others who have behaved in self-destructive and violent ways. One of his case studies involves a boyhood friend, Nicky, who roomed with Goldberg in boarding school. Through Nicky, a charming black youth, who later in life kills a man in a rage, Goldberg discovers some of his own personal shortcomings as well as those of his chosen profession. Goldberg interweaves the case studies with a critical examination of different psychoanalytical theories regarding destructive behavior. He advocates a more humanistic approach to psychoanalysis that takes into account social problems, as well as individual personalities, in treating patients. The fascinating case studies keep the reader engaged as Goldberg examines the classic theme of the struggle between good and evil from what would otherwise be a strictly pedagogical viewpoint. --Vanessa Bush

This book falls through the cracks not only of psychiatry and psychoanalysis, but of many other disciplines--criminology, sociology, philosophy. An existential psychologist and psychoanalyst with forensic interests, Goldberg is zealous, well meaning, and distressed about his subject matter. However, his thesis fails in its attempt, and its reach exceeds its grasp. The author tries to hold the social feet of psychoanalysis to the fire because it has not sufficiently "saved" the "lost souls" of criminal bent described in the book, while he offers distorted aspects of psychoanalytic theory focused on goodness in his attempt to redeem psychoanalysis as a savior discipline for society. His point that analytic theory falls short in understanding adult moral development may be good enough; but trying to use extreme examples of "evil," as the author defines them, to promote a theory he believes is deficient in "good" seems to this reviewer to require too many mental gymnastics. The author renders the case examples in journalistic, and simplistic, terms, rather than in clinical terms that would illuminate inevitably complicated psyches. Not recommended for professional or academic collections. R. H. Balsam; Yale University
