About the book

Searching for the Perfect Woman is a thorough account of a five-year psychoanalysis with a deeply troubled, yet successful man-the attention to technique and theory, accompanied by an in-depth interview with Vamik Volkan, makes this an excellent resource for teaching psychoanalytic technique. Beyond the technical merits, the narrative structure and style reads like a novel, drawing lay readers into the fascinating story of Hamilton's life and his eventual cure.
