Why, then, does he risk all of this during an encounter with one of his sexually repressed patients? What prompts such a man? Is it done soley for his own gratification or are more complex motivations involved? Is he idealistic, simplistic, or simply a seducer?
"A literate, thoughtful exploration of a controversial subject. The courtroom scenes are among the most interesting in this novel, where truth is lost in the shuffle. A readable, gripping story."
