Recension of David Muhlmann’s Urolagnia: Psychoanalytical Issues
By Louis Raffinot
English
This book on urophilia is the first to offer a historical and systematic review of this issue, providing an overview of its treatment in both earlier and contemporary scientific literature across the three main disciplines that constitute the field research in psychopathology: psychiatry, psychology, and psychoanalysis. Main objective of David Muhlmann, a clinical psychologist and psychoanalyst, is to elucidate the theoretical and clinical stakes of this phenomenon – particularly from a psychoanalytic perspective – and to provide clinicians with conceptual and clinical frameworks.
