Practicing and training Jungian analysts, as well as all those involved in clinical treatment, will find the interdisciplinary approach to psychosomatic medicine promoted in this book fascinating reading.Denise Gimenez Ramos is a clinical psychologist and a member of the Brazilian Society of Analytical Psychology.
