The Matrix and Meaning of Character: An Archetypal and Developmental Approach
"Finally, a Jungian book on character that links sensitive clinical insights to the mythopoetic imagination and to the developmental dynamism of the archetypal psyche. Nancy Dougherty and Jacqueline West have written an original and deeply significant book that brings together the best insights of contemporary analysis and is a virtual map of the soul. A must-read for clinicians and scholars of all persuasions, this is a book on character that has character, and one destined to become a classic in the field.''- Stanton Marlan, Duquesne University, USA"This book is one that could be consulted when challenging cases demand a different perspective. It would therefore be a valuable addition to the bookshelf of any experienced therapist."- Pam Marshall, Consultant Adult Psychotherapist, Eating Disorders Service, European Eating Disorders Review (16) 2008, UK"Body psychotherapists will find the richness of [Dougherty and West's] treatment of each character a wonderful source to enlarge and deepen our perspective."-Jacqueline A.
