Current Lacanian ideas on psychosis have much to contribute to the complex and often surprising forms of psychotic symptomatology encountered in clinical practice. By focussing on the unique experience of individuals with psychosis, this book examines the centrality of body phenomena to both the onset and stabilisation of psychosis.

Jonathan D. Redmond (PhD) is a Lecturer at the Australian College of Applied Psychology. He holds degrees in Communication and Cultural Studies, Clinical Psychology and Psychoanalytic Studies. He is the author of numerous articles on psychoanalytic theory.
