Psychologist and therapist Perrin revisits the issues of mind-body (psyche-soma) interaction giving a hermeneutical interpretation. She acknowledges the fluidity of perceptions that lead to conflicting conclusions. Her main concern is the historical division of soma and psyche, with the psyche being privileged. She reviews several theories that she feels do not address the dichotomy successfully. A better understanding of the interworking of mind and body is necessary for effective meta-physchological therapy. Perrin also senses that there is "a third thing," neither mind nor body nor, she insists, religion that is yet to be defined but unifies the whole. The work is aimed at therapists who are already familiar with the theories cited. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
