(Show)
The author describes the enigma of empathy in everyday clinical psychiatric practice, examining the sensory parameters of personal world views and the paradox of the self. Beginning with an inquiry into the nature of wonder as a state of mind and a clinical stance, the author explores creativity in introspection, art and empathy.
