Title: The Fundamental Things Apply
Review: Individuals who injure themselves have existed throughout history. This fascinating case study shows the historical context of this perplexing behavior. Saint Rose of Lima explained her self-inflicted suffering with the values of 16th-century South America the way an anorexic today draws on current values. Why do self-injurers win social approval and subtle encouragement? Rose's huge popularity during her lifetime and ever since is brilliantly explained here based on extensive original research. This tale brings true insight into the human psyche in any time period.
