Over The Edge

Release Date: 1987-01-01
ISBN: 451206002


As a psychologist, I’ve always been intrigued by the genius/insanity myth. The truth is most highly gifted individuals are pretty well-adjusted. In fact, there are data suggesting they’re better adjusted than everyone else. But what if…it’s all about the what-if.

In this one I continued to plumb the themes that have preoccupied my professional life as a psychologist and novelist: family psychopathology in Southern California, the hazards of ignoring the past, the corrupting influence of power and money. The book was a best-seller during the year of its initial publication, 1987, and to my amazement, it jumped back on the list in 2003. Alex Delaware functions here, as the consummate professional, and many readers told me EDGE offered them an insider’s view of the world of psychotherapy.






     
   

"OVER THE EDGE is startling. Jonathan Kellerman's third Alex Delaware novel is also his best... Kellerman has reinvented the private-eye story, and maybe just in time...Filled with insight...If you've got a weak stomach, enter Alex's world carefully, but DO enter." --Stephen King

"Richly psychological... the best yet." -- Publishers Weekly.
