GOOD Condition – DJ bright and shiny, sticker residue upper right front and base of spine; tight binding; PO’s sticker on front cloth cover and paper residue (maybe a nameplate) inside front cover; binding tight, light underlining and notations present. Whoever owned this book was a careful and thoughtful reader… I was surprised to find any markings because it didn’t feel like the book had been read.

Based on years of research, a psychoanalyst offers, a method that will enable adults to feel the banished child within, and let that child speak and condemn the past’s abuse, and thus liberate their lives. In direct opposition to the Freudian drive theory, the author of the best-selling The Drama Of The Gifted Child believes that children, at birth, are inherently good, and she traces all forms of criminal deeds to past mistreatments.
