Ethel Spector Person Boeken
Ethel Person was een psychiater wiens baanbrekende onderzoek zich verdiepte in de complexiteit van de menselijke seksualiteit. Door middel van meeslepende studies, waaronder bezoeken aan sexshops en dragclubs, probeerde ze de motivaties achter transgender- en travestiet ervaringen te begrijpen. Haar uitgebreide klinische werk onderzocht ook de belangrijke rol van seksuele fantasie bij het vormgeven van individuele levens. De geschriften van Person verschenen regelmatig in publicaties voor een breed publiek, waarin ze haar centrale argument uiteenzette dat mensen hun leven bewust of onbewust vormgeven door te streven naar het belichamen van hun fantasieën.
In Feeling Strong , noted psychoanalyst Ethel S. Person redefines the notion of power. The stigma of evil we associate with the subject of power comes from this one conception of power -- the drive for dominance over other people, or, in its most extreme form, an overriding and often ruthless lust for total command. But this is far too limited a definition. Pointing to a more fulfilling sense of self-empowerment than is being touted in pop-psychology manuals of our time, Feeling Strong shows us that power is really our ability to produce an effect, to make something we want to happen actually take place. Power is a desire and a drive, and it is central in our lives, dictating much of our behavior and consuming much of our interior lives. Drawing from her expertise honed in clinical practice, as well as from examples in literature and true-life vignettes, Person shows how you can achieve authentic power to find something that matters; to feel inner certainty; to find a personality of your own and effectively plot your life story.

Freud was the first to describe and try to explain »transference love.» Based on Freud‹s ‹Bemerkungen‹ (Observations), the authors discuss their view of love, female sexuality and conventional morality. They shed light on the role of the analyst and psychotherapist in the development of »transference love,» explore the differences between remembering, re-experiencing, acting and staging and study Freud‹s theory in light of current developments in psychoanalytic thinking.
