This text offers an understanding of shame dynamics - the role of shame in creating and maintaining character pathology, and shame in the context of obsessive-compulsive, narcissitic and masochistic personality organizations.

Drawing on in-depth interviews illuminating the phenomenology of shame in the general public, this text explores the various dimensions of the shame experience. It includes: the complex relationship between shame and female sexual development; shame and phallic inhibition; and shame and orality.
