by Dustin Kahoud (Author), Danielle Knafo (Author)
In Sex, Drugs and Creativity: The Search for Magic in a Disenchanted World, Kahoud and Knafo take a close look at omnipotent fantasies in three domains: sex, drugs, and creativity. They demonstrate how these fantasies emerge and how artists draw on them both to create and destroy-sometimes simultaneously - and how understanding this can help psychoanalysts work more effectively with these individuals.
