This volume presents significant recent advances in research and clinical practice in the
area of pathological narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder (NPD). Originally
published as a Special Supplement to the Journal of Personality Disorders, the book
brings together leading clinical experts. Chapters examine the neuroscientific and
psychological underpinnings of NPD, describe cutting-edge diagnostic approaches, and
explore the complexities of the therapeutic relationship. Addressing the "dos and
don'ts" of clinical work with this population, the book reviews the status of specialized
treatment strategies - such as transference-focused psychotherapy and
mentalization-based treatment - and identifies important directions for future research.
