Falling Backwards: An Exploration of Trust and Self-Experience

An excellent view of the problems associated with trust in self and others. I have been intrigued to see numbers of my own patients continually "re-scripting" their trauma (Brother's term), in the hope that this time they'll 'get it right', to only inevitably get into strife again because they trust the wrong people, or too-late trust themselves. The book is easily readable, even with the technical language of Self Psychology, which may be unfamiliar to some. Patients and therapists alike may need to read it with care, however, as it may open windows about their own pathology that may disturb them.
