L'auteur est un psychiatre qui travaille à l'hôpital Necker à Paris. Il est spécialisé dans le traitement des obsessions et des compulsions (TOC). Ce livre présente 4 modèles explicatifs : la psychanalyse, l'éthologie, la prespective neurologique, l'approche cognitivo-comportementale. La préférence de l'auteur va à la dernière citée. En effet, les recherches empiriques sur les effets des psychothérapies montrent que seules les approches cognitives et comportementales aboutissent à des résultats thérapeutiques solides. Cette étude, destinée au grand public, est écrite en langage simple. De nombreux exemples cliniques illustrent les explications théoriques et le déroulement d'une psychothérapie

If this were a novel, the tales of astounding wealth, sexual perversion, murder, munificence, rape, insanity, brutality, slavery, religious mania, selfishness, snobbery, charity, suicide, generosity, theft, madness, wickedness, failure and eccentricity which unfold in these pages would be too concentrated to allow for the willing suspension of disbelief.All these sins and virtues, and more, are displayed by the characters in this book, some exhibiting several of them simultaneously.Folly builders were not as we are. They never built what we now call follies. They built for beauty, utility, improvement; it is only we, struggling after them with our imperfect understanding, who dismiss their prodigious constructions as follies.Follies can be found around the world, but England is their spiritual home. Having written the definitive books on follies in Great Britain, Benelux and the USA, Headley & Meulenkamp have turned their attention to the folly builders themselves, people so blinded by fashion or driven by some nameless ideology that they expended great fortunes on making their point in brick, stone and flint.Most follies are simply misunderstood buildings, and this book studies the motives, characters, decisions and delusions of their builders.If there was madness in their building, fortunately there was no method in it.

This edited book is a comprehensive presentation of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) through a neuropsychological framework and the various empirical researches carried out in this domain. The book evaluates whether the information from different research perspectives can form a strong basis for improving the available treatment options for OCD as well as devising newer and better therapy strategies. It thoroughly discusses the various neuropsychological assessment tools that can be used to study the different dimensions of OCD in terms of symptom severity, beliefs, personality and cognition, including executive functions. The book provides guidelines to enhance the skills necessary for developing clinical acumen. The distorted beliefs and functioning, familial factors and scope for inheriting the disorder and obsessive-compulsive spectrum are also described in detail. The book concludes with a discussion of obsessive-compulsive personality traits to help readers arrive at a holistic understanding of OCD, combining neuropsychological and psychoanalytical lenses.
