He reveals how much one's psychic health depends on establishing a realm of life that successfully resists examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.53 x 8.97 x 6.01 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 15, 1998\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45421934018662,"sku":"9780674634633","price":54.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/TDkzQWNCTmNjSWVjUHZtc0FKMkhrUT09.webp?v=1775505009","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/on-kissing-tickling-and-being-bored-psychoanalytic-essays-on-the-unexamined-life-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
