Everyone feels and acts according to their own personality structure. The various well-known
structures - the narcissistic the schizoid the depressive the compulsive the anxious or the
hysterical personality - all represent the expression of basic conflicts unresolved since early
childhood. Although we rarely find these personality types in their purest form they do exist
and may dominate one's experiences and behavior choice of profession and attitude toward one's
work choice of partner and style of partnership hobbies chosen and ability to enjoy life.Karl
König wrote this volume based on a wealth of clinical experience. It is a book for all who are
interested in developing a psychoanalytic understanding of their own behavior and of that of
others.
