In this widely acclaimed book David Shapiro considers four kinds of character psychopathology: obsessive-compulsive; paranoid; hysterical; and passive-impulsive. He shows that the diverse symptoms of these conditions are expressions of general ways of thinking, modes of activity, and qualities of subjective experience styles that characterize each of them. He shows that symptoms and the defense mechanisms associated with them are in character.
David Shapiro, Ph.D., currently a Professor of Psychology at New School University in New York City, began writing Neurotic Styles while working at the Austen Riggs Center in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Since its initial publication the book has become a classic in character psychology.
Essentials of Behavior, Inc. produced this first audio book edition of Neurotic Styles. It contains the full text of the book. The books style is conducive to the audio format. Dr. Weideman, the reader of the book, is a former student of Dr. Shapiros. The warm quality of his voice and his thoughtful reading of the text contribute to the overall listening experience. We chose the audio format to make it easy for the busy professional to continually learn - at home, work, in the car, while exercising, etc.
