(2018) Psychosis or mystical religious experience?, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
This chapter looks not only at how Freudian psychoanalysis views mystical religious experience but also at the experiences in Sigmund Freud's life that contributed to his negative view of religion. During his lifetime other psychoanalytic theorists revised his theory, Carl Jung and Ronald Fairbairn being the two prominent revisionists considered. Chapter 2 explores how their revisions impact psychoanalytic understanding of psychosis and mystical religious experience.
