His clinical studies are orientated from the same angles and he deals inter alia with the developmental aspects of normal and disordered character alcoholism drug addiction perversions obsessional neuroses and psychoses. Of out standing significance are his papers on the psychoanalytical classification of mental disorders on the nature of reality sense and on the 'functional' aspects of the mental apparatus. Glover was well aware of the dangers of uncontrolled abstract theorizing and several of his later essays exhibit an unflinching resolution to apply the strictest scientific standards not only in the regulation of research and the control of technique but also in the teaching and the training of psychoanalysts. The book represents a remarkable achievement indispensable to the psychoanalytical student the psychiatrist and all who wish to ground themselves in the principles and history of psychoanalysis.
