In my work as a therapist, this is the book that I turn to when I have a client with something "odd" going on. Never fails to help me better classify what I'm dealing with. The author does a good job of balancing his own Freudian views with other schools of therapy. Does so in a way that a non-Freudian like me even enjoys. The funny illustrations are fun, if sometimes a little too cutesy. Very readable and could probably be used somewhat by the non-therapist as well.
