In his remarkable narrative, David S. Viscott gives a totally personal account of his training, from medical school through his own analysis, a provocative appraisal of traditional attitudes and techniques, and an insight into the human principles guiding his own practice and philosophy of psychiatry.

    Chosen for its significant historical and education value, this fascinating exposition on consciousness will appeal to collectors of Besant s work and constitutes a worthy addition to any discerning collection of Psychology literature. Annie Besant (1847 - 1933) was an influential British socialist, women's rights activist, theosophist, orator, writer, and stalwart supporter of Irish and Indian self-rule. Originally published in 1904, this scarce classic is proudly republished here with a new introductory biography of the author."
