Taboo or Not Taboo?: Forbidden Thoughts, Forbidden Acts in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy

By Lori C Bohm

Psychoanalysis has, from its inception, been a discipline concerned with overcoming the ill effects of certain social taboos. Patients in psychoanalysis are encouraged to speak about 'whatever comes to mind', without editing, even if they believe their thoughts and feelings to be unacceptable, heinous or scandalous. This book challenges this idea.
