"This is both a defense of the long-dismissed diagnosis of hysteria as a centerpiece of the human condition and a plea for a new understanding of the influence of sibling and peer relationships. Sibling relationships are crucial to development because they are our first social relationship, Mitchell argues, and it is a critical failure of psychoanalysis and other psychological theories of development to obscure and ignore siblings and peers."--BOOK JACKET.
