The bestseller by Nancy McWilliams Psychoanalytic Diagnosis is being reissued in a new, revised edition by the author. This book has experienced unprecedented success, both in Greece and abroad, and has been used internationally as a classic reference manual for understanding an individual's personality and applying this knowledge in therapy.

The revised edition is enriched with the latest theories and research from the fields of neuroscience, the study of infant development, trauma, and the rapidly developing Relational Psychoanalysis.

The book describes central psychoanalytic theories and defenses, as well as ten personality typologies: psychopathic, narcissistic, schizoid, paranoid, depressive, manic, masochistic, obsessive-compulsive, hysterical, and dissociative.

McWilliams aims for the book to be used by mental health professionals of all theoretical orientations who are interested in a personalized and sensitive understanding of the personality of the individuals they work with.
