About this book
Offering a novel analysis of a patient’s experience of agoraphobia, this collaboration between a clinical psychologist and a linguist proposes a view of agoraphobia as a communicative disorder. It opens up potential for linguistic and narrative analysis by revealing the roots of panic and by establishing a framework for therapeutic intervention.
Reviews
Extraordinarily creative and thought-provoking, Constructing Panic will open up new vistas for thinking about this disorder and related emotional disorders as well.

In a marriage of psychology and linguistics, this book makes clear that for all its frustrations as an instrument, language is potent, the primary medium for symbolizing constructions of reality. The authors are sensitive to human experience and suffering, and their linguistic insights are subtle yet vivid.
