This timely volume questions our understanding of the highly current concept and phenomenon of narcissism, working from a broad psychotherapeutic perspective.
Making a strong case for revising the formal diagnostic criteria of narcissistic personality disorder, this work argues for an approach that includes not just grandiose but also vulnerable manifestations of narcissistic pathology. It documents how inconsistent applications of the concept of narcissism have caused confusion in the field, creating a need for new definitions and deeper understanding. In doing so, this book offers specific suggestions for how best to treat people with narcissistic personality pathology in modern relational psychotherapy, whilst also discussing the notion of healthy forms of narcissism.
Presented with insights from deep clinical experience and a broad theoretical base, this title offers a key resource for treatment professionals working with narcissistic patients, those currently living with narcissism, and anyone with an interest in this deeply fascinating topic.
