Book description

This book offers an interdisciplinary perspective on personality disorder with chapters by philosophers, psychiatrists, and psychological scientists. Written to be accessible to all three disciplines, it updates traditional conceptualizations and offers new and novel perspectives on personality disorder, with a special emphasis on borderline and narcissistic personalities. Featuring contributions from established senior researchers as well as early career scholars from across four continents, it offers surveys of contemporary research and clinical expertise that together plumb the foundational understandings of personality disorder.

Reviews

‘Banicki and Zachar have assembled the most comprehensive and wide-ranging collection of original works about personality disorders that has ever been published. Their book encompasses multiple theoretical perspectives on these conditions as well as deeply researched empirical studies. Conceptualizing Personality Disorder is essential reading for everyone with an interest in the various personality disorders.’

Allan V. Horwitz - Distinguished Board of Governors Professor of Sociology Emeritus, Rutgers University
