Damian Janus is practicing psychologist.
Psychopathology and Religion is an insightful look at how religion
often supplies a horizon upon which to understand the concrete
experience, interpretation, and treatment of various forms of
psychopathology. It is also a reminder that Freud has made
important contributions to the philosophy of religion.
*Patrick Whitehead, Albany State University*
“In a captivating manner, Damian Janus presents unique, creative,
and informative conjunctions between psychopathology and religion,
including commentary conjoining religion with neurosis, anorexia
nervosa with aspirations for godliness, psychosis and narcissism
with religiosity, demonic possession, spirits, souls, and
immortality with psychopathology.”
*Marvin P. Osman, New Center for Psychoanalysis*
