D. Laing considers the place and function of the ordinary human world in the objective scientific scheme of things. He extends and deepens the reflections he produced on the themes in his early books, particularly in The Divided Self, The Politics of Experience and The Facts of Life. ***Here he goes on to consider the effect on us when the objective scientific look is brought to bear at birth, at death, and when we become physically or mentally helpless and at the mercy of others. ***His critique of trends in biology, obstetrics, psychiatry and psychoanalysis is often very funny, however painful, and is tellingly documented. He examines various 'checkpoints' where experience and science seem to come into a head-on collision. ***In the second part of this book Laing turns to experience itself and through depictions (some quite extraordinary) and descriptions tries to exemplify and at the same time to discuss a feasible and valid way of communicating about experience. This part of the book is largely based on Dr Laing's thirty years' experience in psychiatry and psychoanalysis, and almost all of it is controversial and challenging. There will be few who will not share his wonder at the correspondence between patterns in the mind, in myths, and in the morphological transformations of embryology, whatever we make of them. ***In this book Laing is having a lively conversation with his contemporaries, and we hear his voice at its best.' (Quotes taken from the dustwrapper flaps). ***First impression of the true first edition, in its original dustwrapper.
