Title: some interesting stuff, but wordy would be an understatement
Review: Strong points: THIS is fascinating stuff about schizoid personalities (emotionally detached, withdrawn personalities), and though Guntrip doesn't always say so, I think in varying degrees it's relevant to pretty much everyone I know...in terms of people's emotions being split off from their conscious selves (thus the schism). also: the occasional chunk of strong case material.WEAK POINTS: are you willing to wade through hundreds of pages of literal word-noise and jargon to get his underlying points, which he seems to make over and over and over and over and over again in a million slightly different ways?if you're the type of person who has trouble skimming and feels obligated to read every word, I would recommend this book as a good remedy for insomnia.
