every body can relate to these studies by dr. Laing.It's all about the narcissism of parents destroying lives. Alice Miller wrote a bit about that- really affirming stuff

Whilst this is an old book now I still felt certain points being put forward held true and was interested to learn Laing's thoughts on the familial influence on schizophrenia. I enjoyed the case history style of the book and felt whilst dated now I still learnt a lot.
