The Wisdom of the Ego
George E. Vaillant
A preeminent American psychiatrist draws on his famous Study of Adult Development to give an exhilarating look at how the mind’s defenses work. What we see as the mind’s trickery, Vaillant tells us, is actually healthy. What’s more, it can reveal the mind at its most creative and mature, soothing and protecting us from unbearable reality.
