	EISENSTEIN VICTOR W Neurotic Interaction in Marriage Basic Books, US, 1956. First Edition, Hard Cover. Near Fine /Very Good ++/Good Plus. 352 pages with an index. "Twenty five of the country's leading psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers present in this volume the substance of their firsthand clinical and research experiences with the major problem areas in marriage. Laying bare the most frequent sources of discord responsible for America's average of 400,000 divorces annually, they illustrate ways of isolating and immobilizing patterns of behavior which daily threaten countless other marriages. The Neurotic Choice of Mate; The Effects of Marital Conflict on Child Development; Sexual Problems in Marriage; The Alcoholic Spouse; The Prediction of Marital Adjustment; Changes in Family Equilibrium as a Result of Treatment; The Present Status of Group and Individual Methods of Treatment-these are a few of the specific subjects on which new light is shed by such noted specialists and practitioners as Lawrence S. Kubie, Ashley Montagu, Margaret S. Mahler, Bela Mittelmann, Molly Harrower and J. Robert Gomberg. Of Neurotic Interaction in Marriage, Jacob A. Arlow, M.D. member [at the time of publication] of the faculty of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, writes: "(It) contrasts favorably with the usual superficial generalizations published concerning marital discord and divorce. The volume is authoritative, informative and interesting at the same time." Book - Near Fine - slight marking to pastedowns and black boards.

	ELLIS HAVELOCK Psychology of Sex : A Manual for Students Garden City Books, US, 1954. Reprint, Hard Cover. Very Good/Good Plus. 377 pages with an index. "This is perhaps the most important and most famous book on sex psychology ever published for the layman. Havelock Ellis, whom Encyclopaedia Britannica calls the "Darwin of sex," has written a concise but comprehensive introduction to the subject of sex which will enable the reader to comprehend not only his own sexual nature but that of other men and women as well. Dr. Ellis fully discusses all the essentials of sex, from its physical basis to its psychological overtones. His chapters on the biology of sex, sex in youth, sex deviations, sex inversions, the role of sex in marriage, sex in relation to love, and the dynamic mental influence of the sexual impulse are masterpieces of descriptive clarity. The author deliberately made this the most simple and concise book ever written on the subject in order to reach the busy medical practitioners, the students, and the general reader for whom this book was intended. He has furnished the vital clues for those who desire to go further into the study of this subject, and for those who desire understanding of their own sexual make-up. While a knowledge of the pathological aspects of sex is important for the medical profession, it has been overly stressed in the past, much to the detriment of those individuals seeking either a true picture of sex or guidance for their own sex problems. Dr. Ellis stresses the point that, while his experience is partly derived from the abnormal persons who came to him from widely varied quarters, it is chiefly founded on his knowledge of normal men and women and their problems in ordinary life. Although there are chapters in this book dealing with deviations from the so-called "normalcy" they are placed in their proper perspective and relationship in the over all study of sex. In no other book can the reader be assured of getting the full, true facts about sex psychology presented in an authoritative, forth right, and comprehensible manner, free from the sensationalism and distortion created by the overemphasis on abnormalities."

Dust Jacket - Good Plus - some loss to top of spine with some wear to corners, strengthened to verso, some browning to jacket and some marking to verso at the bottom of the spine.

Near Fine/Very Good. x, 245 pages, size 8.75 inches tall by 5.5 inches with an index. Illustrated frontispiece. ' The fascination of Jung's personality and the originality of his researches have been the subject both of admiration and of stimulus to workers in a wide variety of disciplines. It is not therefore surprising that since his death estimates of his life and work have been appearing in book or essay form all over the world. In this volume are collected a number of reactions to his death written by analysts who knew him personally or have been trained in his methods. The essays can be grouped under three headings: studies based on his ideas; memories of personal meetings with him; and outline accounts of the developments of analytical psychology in various parts of the world. The volume therefore supplies a spectrum of Jung's personality at work which will be welcomed by those who want to know more of him as a person and more about the science of analytical psychology which he founded .'

	KRISTAL LEONARD [GENERAL EDITOR] The ABC of Psychology Facts on File Publications, US, 1982. Reprint, Hard Cover. Very Good/Near Very Good. 253 pages. Illustrated with black and white photographs. ' It would be difficult indeed to define the importance of psychology more succinctly than did the British philosopher Bertand Russell: "The apparent reality of our world is in part delusive and in part inferential: all the raw material of our knowledge consists of mental events in the lives of separate people. In this region ..psychology is supreme." Psychology-the study of mind and behavior-has grown tremendously in impact and scope during the second half of the 20th century. THE ABC OF PSYCHOLOGY offers readers up-to-date [at the time of publication] summaries and definitions of all the central concepts, movements and applications of this discipline. Entries are arranged alphabetically, but the book's usefulnessgoes considerably beyond that of an ordinary dictionary. Just some of the features included are: Accounts of fascinating experiments; Descriptions of disorders accompanied by information about treatment; Sketches of famous psychologists and their contributions; Discussion of the relationship between physiology and psychology; Liberal cross-references. From body language to hypnosis to psychoanalysis, THE ABC OF PSYCHOLOGY will inform and interest readers with its precise, readable summaries of the most useful, socially relevant concepts in psychology today '.

	EISENSTEIN VICTOR W Neurotic Interaction in Marriage Basic Books, US, 1956. First Edition, Hard Cover. Near Fine /Very Good ++/Good Plus. 352 pages with an index. "Twenty five of the country's leading psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers present in this volume the substance of their firsthand clinical and research experiences with the major problem areas in marriage. Laying bare the most frequent sources of discord responsible for America's average of 400,000 divorces annually, they illustrate ways of isolating and immobilizing patterns of behavior which daily threaten countless other marriages. The Neurotic Choice of Mate; The Effects of Marital Conflict on Child Development; Sexual Problems in Marriage; The Alcoholic Spouse; The Prediction of Marital Adjustment; Changes in Family Equilibrium as a Result of Treatment; The Present Status of Group and Individual Methods of Treatment-these are a few of the specific subjects on which new light is shed by such noted specialists and practitioners as Lawrence S. Kubie, Ashley Montagu, Margaret S. Mahler, Bela Mittelmann, Molly Harrower and J. Robert Gomberg. Of Neurotic Interaction in Marriage, Jacob A. Arlow, M.D. member [at the time of publication] of the faculty of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, writes: "(It) contrasts favorably with the usual superficial generalizations published concerning marital discord and divorce. The volume is authoritative, informative and interesting at the same time." Book - Near Fine - slight marking to pastedowns and black boards.

	ELLIS HAVELOCK Psychology of Sex : A Manual for Students Garden City Books, US, 1954. Reprint, Hard Cover. Very Good/Good Plus. 377 pages with an index. "This is perhaps the most important and most famous book on sex psychology ever published for the layman. Havelock Ellis, whom Encyclopaedia Britannica calls the "Darwin of sex," has written a concise but comprehensive introduction to the subject of sex which will enable the reader to comprehend not only his own sexual nature but that of other men and women as well. Dr. Ellis fully discusses all the essentials of sex, from its physical basis to its psychological overtones. His chapters on the biology of sex, sex in youth, sex deviations, sex inversions, the role of sex in marriage, sex in relation to love, and the dynamic mental influence of the sexual impulse are masterpieces of descriptive clarity. The author deliberately made this the most simple and concise book ever written on the subject in order to reach the busy medical practitioners, the students, and the general reader for whom this book was intended. He has furnished the vital clues for those who desire to go further into the study of this subject, and for those who desire understanding of their own sexual make-up. While a knowledge of the pathological aspects of sex is important for the medical profession, it has been overly stressed in the past, much to the detriment of those individuals seeking either a true picture of sex or guidance for their own sex problems. Dr. Ellis stresses the point that, while his experience is partly derived from the abnormal persons who came to him from widely varied quarters, it is chiefly founded on his knowledge of normal men and women and their problems in ordinary life. Although there are chapters in this book dealing with deviations from the so-called "normalcy" they are placed in their proper perspective and relationship in the over all study of sex. In no other book can the reader be assured of getting the full, true facts about sex psychology presented in an authoritative, forth right, and comprehensible manner, free from the sensationalism and distortion created by the overemphasis on abnormalities."

' The fascination of Jung's personality and the originality of his researches have been the subject both of admiration and of stimulus to workers in a wide variety of disciplines. It is not therefore surprising that since his death estimates of his life and work have been appearing in book or essay form all over the world. In this volume are collected a number of reactions to his death written by analysts who knew him personally or have been trained in his methods. The essays can be grouped under three headings: studies based on his ideas; memories of personal meetings with him; and outline accounts of the developments of analytical psychology in various parts of the world. The volume therefore supplies a spectrum of Jung's personality at work which will be welcomed by those who want to know more of him as a person and more about the science of analytical psychology which he founded .'

' It would be difficult indeed to define the importance of psychology more succinctly than did the British philosopher Bertand Russell: "The apparent reality of our world is in part delusive and in part inferential: all the raw material of our knowledge consists of mental events in the lives of separate people. In this region ..psychology is supreme." Psychology-the study of mind and behavior-has grown tremendously in impact and scope during the second half of the 20th century. THE ABC OF PSYCHOLOGY offers readers up-to-date [at the time of publication] summaries and definitions of all the central concepts, movements and applications of this discipline. Entries are arranged alphabetically, but the book's usefulnessgoes considerably beyond that of an ordinary dictionary. Just some of the features included are: Accounts of fascinating experiments; Descriptions of disorders accompanied by information about treatment; Sketches of famous psychologists and their contributions; Discussion of the relationship between physiology and psychology; Liberal cross-references. From body language to hypnosis to psychoanalysis, THE ABC OF PSYCHOLOGY will inform and interest readers with its precise, readable summaries of the most useful, socially relevant concepts in psychology today '.
