Book Description
Dor (emeritus, psychopathology and psychoanalysis, UniversitT Denis-Diderot, Paris VII) contends that perversion is us (not just another’s), that strictly speaking there is no perversion but sexual perversion, and that perversion lies at the heart of what Freud called “so-called normal sexuality.” To make sense of the specific structural logic of the perverse process, the book looks at the conflicting desires of the oedipal entanglement from the beginnings of Freudian thought.
