Rating: 4
Summary: Very good
Comment: The essays were more academic than I'd anticipated and I think they presuppose a working knowledge of Freud and psychoanalytic theory. I skipped around to the ones that interested me, meaning I didn't feel like reading all of them.

I've got an advanced degree in psychology; I understand from where this book comes and I thought it was just fine. Smart, worth looking at, but not as "nothing else like this" as the reviews seem to indicate.

Worth mentioning: Phillips is a child psychologist and his own anecdotes, from his practice, are about children.

Four stars for intelligence.

Rating: 5
Summary: delicious psychoanalytic attention to overlooked topics
Comment: new and creative vehicle for teaching/exploring analytic thought--the essay--similar in style to Yolam's "Love's Executioner"

Rating: 5
Summary: very stimulating!
