Psychoanalyst Adam E Jukes' previous books have tackled the roots of toxic masculinity but his new title provides a revolutionary viewpoint for all relationships, particularly broken ones.

"You are responsible for everything that is wrong with your relationship including any behaviour of your partner which you use to justify, excuse, or in any other way account for your own behaviour towards him/her, or the world in general."

Adam Jukes, author, psychotherapist and analyst in general and private practice

About the Book

Adam Juke's ‘Mad Hypothesis' (so called because, at first glance, it appears to be just that - mad) is the epicentre of his new book, which is not filled with comforting psycho-babble and it certainly shouldn't be listed in the ‘self-help' section, instead it places its readers' happiness firmly within their own realm of responsibility.

‘What you've got is what you want'is designed to allow its readers to re-evaluate the relationships they're in, their behaviour and what they are doing to contribute to their own problems.

Adam writes from an expert opinion that is informed by more than four decades of therapeutic experience but is not inaccessible to a more spontaneous reader. After all, most of us can relate to issues in relationships over the years; from friendships to marriages, sibling rivalry to family rifts. Adam unpacks the psychological jargon he uses to make sure any reader can understand and learn from the ideas that he presents in the book. To fully explain his ‘Mad Hypothesis' Adam looks at subjects including anxiety, sulking, masochism, and attachment issues. Built upon Adam's professional experiences, the book incorporates a number of illuminating case studies that demonstrate how his theories can impact upon people's lives.

If you are troubled by your life and want to make changes, but don't know where to begin, this book is for you. This is a book about relationships and how the way you act, your behaviours, are driven by thoughts, feelings, and impulses of which you may not have any conscious awareness...yet.
