This is a unique book about power & love--a novel verite which unfolds in the form of a "how-to" book. It offers--depicts--a way in which one person can be empowered by another's attention; borrowing from the psychotherapeutic model, it guides the reader in constructing a mutually beneficial paradigm with a carefully chosen other. Advance reviews: "...fascinating...an intelligent self-help book...reads like a novel."--Daphne Merkin, Contributing Editor, Critic, Partisan Review. "Admirably honest...one woman's search for love in the shape of R. D. Laing, the diabolical; lyric muse of the psychiatric profession."--Donald Klein, M.D., Columbia University. "...written from the 'inside'...a form of mutual aid...the presentation style is most unusual & the writing is superb."--Frank Riessman, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief, Social Policy "Two strong intellects meet in this tumultuous relationship...an on edge record of wit. An excellent read, this clash between like spirits is a must for all Laing fans & students."--Maurice Kenny, Winner of American Book Award. "...an occasion to be with (Laing) in spirit & feel his presence. (Offers)...therapeutic insight, understanding, & intention (applied) to an intimate partnership."--Claudio Naranjo, M.D., Fulbright Scholar, Guggenheim fellow.

In ‘The Politics of Experience’ and the visionary ‘Bird of Paradise’, R.D. Laing shows how the straitjacket of conformity imposed on us all leads to intense feelings of alienation and a tragic waste of human potential. He throws into question the notion of normality, examines schizophrenia and psychotherapy, transcendence and ‘us and them’ thinking, and illustrates his ideas with a remarkable case history of a ten-day psychosis. ‘We are bemused and crazed creatures,’ Laing suggests. This outline of ‘a thoroughly self-conscious and self-critical human account of man’ represents a major attempt to understand our deepest dilemmas and sketch in solutions. ‘Everyone in contemporary psychiatry owes something to R.D. Laing’ Anthony Clare, the Guardian.

R.D. Laing was one of the most controversial and innovative psychiatrists of modern times. In this biography Laing's son tells the story of his father's career, beginning with his unhappy relationship with an emotionally distant and unexpressive mother, which laid the foundation for a lifetime of pioneering work on madness and the family. Laing formulated his unorthodox views on psychiatry while still at medical school in Glasgow, and there began his intense interaction with disturbed patients. In the mid-60s, he co-founded the therapeutic residential community, Kingsley Hall, where he became famous for his experiments with LSD and his treatment of Mary Barnes.

DIVDIVA riotously funny saga of institutional insanity, based on the author’s association with the notorious psychiatrist R. D. Laing/divDIV Despite massive literary success, Sidney Bell feels perpetually unsatisfied and suffers unexplained physical ailments. Desperate to straighten out his twisted life, anxiety-ridden Sid seeks help from experimental psychiatrist Dr. Willie Last, whose therapeutic methods involve hallucinatory drugs such as LSD and trading places with his patients. After a tumultuous first trip, Sid ends up at Conolly House, a radical hospital for young schizophrenics where he serves as a “barefoot doctor.” From there, Sigal launches readers on a sardonic, rambling journey through a fantastic breed of insanity./divDIV With his freewheeling, ecstatic prose, Sigal spins a manic psychological quest into a telling portrait of a society in the grips of a turbulent decade. Zone of the Interior is a subversive and uproarious search for clarity and comfort in an increasingly mad world, grounded by an unforgettable narrator./divDIV/div/div

First published in 1960, this watershed work aimed to make madness comprehensible, and in doing so revolutionized the way we perceive mental illness. Using case studies of patients he had worked with, psychiatrist R. D. Laing argued that psychosis is not a medical condition but an outcome of the 'divided self', or the tension between the two personas within us: one our authentic, private identity, and the other the false, 'sane' self that we present to the world.
