Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism Following Freud's findings, CHIOZZA pursues the concept of a language of the body, that provides a clue for the understanding of the different diseases. Once the body language is deciphered, the disease can be understood as a means of communication, as well as the expression of the drama that is suffered by the patient. This book consists of six investigations developed by the Department of Research of the Weizsaecker Medical Consultation Center, headed by Dr. LUIS CHIOZZA. The book explains the method for the psychoanalytic understanding of the patient, and of the role that the disease plays in each particular case. Thus, each patient is seen as a story in which the disease is both the symbol and the shelter of a drama that unfolds in the malfunctioning of the body.
