The bottom line: sadomasochism is about the giving or receiving pleasure from the infliction or reception of pain or humiliation and both pain and pleasure can be purely emotional, no sexual or physical context necessary. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKantor deconstructs sadomasochism to show us how it affects each of us, consciously or not. He explains the \"life phases\" of sadomasochism, the role early trauma plays in this self-defeating action when it reaches a neurotic level, and the damage it does to individuals, loved ones, and society. This ground-breaking book will appeal to psychology students and researchers, as well as general readers with an interest in psychology.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Kantor\u003c\/b\u003e, MD, is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist who has been in private practice in Boston and New York City, and served as assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Mount Sinai Medical School.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 9.4 x 6.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 25, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52241690984722,"sku":"9781440863202","price":122.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/koMJ7b7DJp9781440863202.webp?v=1777904230","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/social-sadomasochism-how-emotional-dominance-and-submission-affect-peoples-lives-hardcover","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
