Book Description:

Drawing on work with Indian and Japanese patients, this title explores inner worlds that are markedly different from the Western psyche. It features case studies that illustrate this argument: the 'familial self', rooted in the subtle emotional hierarchical relationships of the family and group, predominates in Indian and Japanese psyches.
