Pro Reviews: Equals

  • Enhanced Muze Note

    Despite [his] promising ammunition and his considerable rhetorical skill...Phillip's vision of 'democratic psychoanalysis' never amounts to much more than vague, rose-tinted fantasy.

Publisher Notes: Equals

  • Written in his beloved epigrammatic and aphoristic style, "Equals" extends Adam Phillips's probings into the psychological and the political, bringing his trenchant wit to such subjects as the usefulness of inhibitions and the paradox of permissive authority. He explores why citizens in a democracy are so eager to establish levels of hierarchy when the system is based on the assumption that every man is created equal. And he ponders the importance of mockery in group behavior, and the psyche's struggle as a metaphor for political conflict.
