Examining interrelations and multicausality between different systems within the body and mind, the book features a range of patients, from those suffering from cancer and chronic pain, to those suffering from stress and alcohol addiction. It provides readers with a rich selection of case histories through which to understand the scope of psychosomatic therapy and outlines the psychoanalytic, medical, and neurological dimensions to each case.
