Publisher's Synopsis
When is a relationship too close, and when is it not close enough? This book looks at these issues through the essays of 11 professionals and several laypersons, all examining the issue of intimacy in personal and professional relationships. Along with chapters on organizational psychology in Jungian societies, the supervision of analysts in training and the experience of being a trainee, the book contains candid reflections on being the son of a psychiatrist, a description of an analyst's work with a dying patient, and discussions of subjects such as the taboo against sex between therapists and clients and the dynamics of dream groups.
