By S. Giora Shoham.

This continuation of Shoham's unique psychoanalytic personality theory of deviance applies its principles and insights to understanding social deviance in a deeper cultural and religious sense. Mining the works of Rank, Ferenzi, Stack Sullivan and many other great personality theorists of the twentieth century, Shoham effortlessly blends them into a deep understanding of existentialist thought to explain the social deviance in others and in ourselves. Shoham's obvious adoration of the Judeo-Christian ethic, linking it directly to internal family relationships and the external cultural and physical world both reassures and threatens.This is a monumental work, as challenging as it is informative and will remain a classic for the ages.
