Psychoanalytic practitioners know that the analytic situation is the best possible site for the emergence of love, for the study of all its ambiguities and uncertainties.

This is precisely the objective of Joseph Natterson's new and audacious book, The Loving Self. He provides a theory for the praxis of therapeutic love.
