People Who Do Things to Each Other: Essays in Analytical Psychology

This work shows Judith Hubback to have been able to unify her clinical and theoretic observations to a high degree of excellence. Less apparent but deeply felt, is her presence as a warm and experienced observer of all that came her way. The writing is not merely interpretive in a psychological sense; it is the writing of a highly cultivated and skilled literary artist.
