Publisher's original red paper grained boards indicative of first issue, titles in black on top board and spine. Apart from an owner's name on the fep, this copy is unmarked.** Marguerite Sechehaye (1887-1964), a Swiss psychologist and psychoanalyst, followed the work of Sigmund Freud and Jean Piaget closely, believing there was a link between psychosis and trauma experienced as a child. One of her most notable cases was undertaken with a psychotic patient referred to as "Renée," a pseudonym used for Louisa Düss, who the Sechehayes eventually adopted. Over the course of their work together, Sechehaye took the unique approach of chronicling Düss' journal entries and personal reflections in tandem with her own clinical commentary. The approach significantly influenced mental illness research by introducing an antipsychiatry framework that positioned the patient's experiences as a valid means of establishing their case histories. In this work, one of the earliest autobiographical accounts of schizophrenia, Dr. Sechehaye records the 'visions' of 'Renee' along with her clinical commentary.** "Postage for oversized and international shipping will be calculated by size and weight.
