THE POLITICS OF EXPERIENCE AND THE BIRD OF PARADISE
16,50€
In `The Politics of Experience' and the visionary `Bird of Paradise', R.D. Laing shows how the straitjacket of conformity imposed on us all leads to intense feelings of alienation and a tragic waste of human potential. He throws into question the notion of normality, examines schizophrenia and psychotherapy, transcendence and `us and them' thinking, and illustrates his ideas with a remarkable case history of a ten-day psychosis.
