The first pages are a bit difficult for the "uninitiated" but later reads like a novel. A.Boyer-Labrouche described simply and mechanisms of perversion in the bond of love, through known and named characters but also other "celebrities" that we can easily recognize .. The book, which takes into account the current context by a broad view of the issues that trouble our society, ends on a "teaching notes" presenting the main steps of two psychotherapies. A very good book.
