Hardback book in very good condition.
Sex, Suicide,& The Harvard Psychiatrist.
The true story- & the legal case it spawned -go beyond a promising student's tragic death. It lies somewhere in the reams of material discovered in Paul Lonzo's apartment & written on De. Bean-Bayog's own hand. Including shocking journal entries full of sadomasochistic fantasies, intimate notes, & flash cards, all suggesting a complex erotic interplay between doctor & patient. In this chilling excursion to the outer limits of therapy, award-winning reporter Eileen McNamara probes a toxic interdependency that goes to the heart & hubris of psychiatry itself.
