Objects of Hope: Exploring Possibility and Limit in Psychoanalysis
ISBN: 9780881632712 / Angielski / Twarda / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite the importance of the concept of hope in human affairs, and especially in all manner of helping relationships, psychoanalysts have long had difficulty accepting responsibility for the manner in which their various interpretive orientations and explanations of therapeutic action express their own hopes for their patients. In point of fact, observes Steven Cooper, analysts have had relatively little to say about the therapeutic role of hope in general. In this study, Cooper remedies this longstanding lacuna in the literature, and, in the process, provides a thorough comparative analysis...

Psychoanalytic Participation: Action, Interaction, and Integration
ISBN: 9780881632736 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Psychoanalytic Participation: Action, Interaction, and Integration, Kenneth Frank argues that the gulf between analysis and what he terms "action-oriented" or cognitive-behavioral techniques is anachronistic and has unnecessarily limited the repertoire of analytically oriented clinicians. In point of fact, action-oriented and even cognitive-behavioral techniques may be employed in ways that are consistent with the analytic goal of promoting profound personality change, and so may be profitably incorporated into analytic treatments.

Kohut's Freudian Vision
ISBN: 9780881632842 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Heinz Kohut was arguably the most influential modern day psychoanalyst. Because current interest in Kohut's work has focused so completely on self psychology, however, certain aspects of Kohut's thinking, in particular his nonreductive synthesis of Freudian theory, are in danger of being lost. Prior to his development of self psychology, Kohut was a legendary teacher of Freudian theory at the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis. In this volume, Philip Rubovits-Seitz presents Kohut's previously unavailable lectures from his course on psychoanalytic psychology (prepared in collaboration...

Lay Analysis : Life Inside the Controversy
ISBN: 9780881632859 / Angielski / Twarda / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The struggle over the issue of lay or nonmedical analysis has divided the psychoanalytic world for practically the entire first century of psychoanalytic history - from 1910 when the issue first arose, until 1988 with the final settlement of a laysuit brought against the American Psychoanalytic Association (APsaA) and International Psychoanalytic Association (IPA) for their exclusionary practices regarding the training of nonphysicians for psychoanalytic work. This text chronicles this history in detail. It begins with the events of 1910 in Europe and America that initiated their divergent...

A Study of Psychic Presences, James Grotstein integrates some of his most important work of recent years in addressing fundamental questions of human psychology and spirituality. He explores two quintessential and interrelated psychoanalytic problems: the nature of the unconscious mind and the meaning and inner structure of human subjectivity.

The Collapse of the Self and Its Therapeutic Restoration: And Its Therapeutic Restoration
ISBN: 9780881633177 / Angielski / Twarda / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Collapse of the Self and Its Therapeutic Restoration is a rich and clinically detailed account of the therapeutic restoration of the self, and speaks to the healing process for analysts themselves that follows from Rochelle Kainer's sensitive integration of heretofore dissociated realms of psychoanalytic theory. In describing how the reworking of pathological internal object relationships occurs in conjunction with the transformation of selfobject failures, Kainer brings new insight to bear on the healing of the self at the same time as she contributes to healing the historic...

Transference: Shibboleth or Albatross?
ISBN: 9780881633238 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The theory of transference and the centrality of transference interpretation have been hallmarks of psychoanalysis since its inception. But the time has come to subject traditional theory and practice to careful, critical scrutiny in the light of contemporary science. So holds Joseph Schachter, whose Transference: Shibboleth or Albatross? undertakes this timely and thought-provoking task.
After identifying the weaknesses and inconsistencies in Freud's original premises about transference, Schachter demonstrates how contemporary developmental research across a variety of domains...

Looking for Ground: Countertransference and the Problem of Value in Psychoanalysis
ISBN: 9780881633245 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite 50 years of literature documenting the experience and meanings of countertransference in analytic practice, the concept remains a source of controversy. How may countertransference best be understood? In what ways does it impede or facilitate the analyst's activity. Does it serve diagnostic understanding or merely reflect the analyst's own intrusive subjectivity? For Peter Carnochan, such questions can be answered only by revisiting historical, epistemological, and moral issues intrinsic to the analytic enterprise. This study is an attempt to provide a comprehensive understanding of...

In this study, Peter Rudnytsky presents ten substantive and provocative interviews with leading analysts (Enid Balint, Charles Rycroft, Stephen A. Mitchell, Roy Schafer, Jessica Benjamin), with theorists from allied fields (Mary Ainsworth, Peter Lomas, Peter Kramer), and with influential Freud critics (Frank Sulloway, Peter Swales).

Errant Selves: A Casebook of Misbehavior
ISBN: 9780881633337 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A major addition to the psychoanalytic casebook literature, Errant Selves is a collection of case studies dedicated to the psychoanalytic understanding and treatment of behaviour disorders. Guided by the self-psychological theoretical framework presented by Arnold Goldberg in Being of Two Minds (TAP, 1999), the contributors to this volume explore cases of perversions, delinquencies, and addictions in which the misbehaviour at issue serves primarily to ward off painful affects or states of dysphoria in order to achieve a feeling of self-cohesion. Collectively, these case studies demarcate with...

Is There Life Without Mother?: Psychoanalysis, Biography, Creativity
ISBN: 9780881633368 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this richly textured study of personal growth and creativity hemmed in by childhood disaster, Shengold compares the differing gifts and differing solutions of extraordinary talents as they seek to negotiate a universal longing to refind the mother without sliding back into neglect, abuse, and despair. In the foreground of his analysis are moving portraits of Jules Renard and Anthony Trollope and the densely packed traumatic legacy of their respective childhoods, the one limned in sustained psychological torture, the other framed by neglect and abandonment.

In Minding Spirituality, Randall Sorenson, a clinical psychoanalyst, "invites us to take an interest in our patients' spirituality that is respectful but not diffident, curious but not reductionistic, welcoming but not indoctrinating." Out of this invitation emerges a fascinating and broadening investigation of how contemporary psychoanalysis can "mind" spirituality in the threefold sense of being bothered by it, of attending to it, and of cultivating it.

Analysts in the Trenches: Streets, Schools, War Zones
ISBN: 9780881633450 / Angielski / Miękka / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The horrific events of 9/11 and its sequelae have reinforced what thoughtful analysts have long known: that they have a responsibility to respond to the complex social and educational issues arising in their communities -- to function, that is, as community psychoanalysts. Analysts in the Trenches vividly illustrates what socially engaged analysts can offer to violent and disturbed communities. Contributors bring analytic expertise to bear on the emotional sequelae to violence, including sexual and physical abuse; to multiple and traumatic loses; and to learning inhibitions. They also explore...

Infecting the Treatment: Being an Hiv-Positive Analyst
ISBN: 9780881633528 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. As HIV/AIDS has evolved from an acute crisis into a chronic, long-term problem, it remains what it has always been: a medical condition that is far more than a medical condition. As Gilbert Cole relates, we still struggle with the need to read HIV/AIDS as a moral text that links certain sexual practices and stigmatized identities with punishment, suffering and death. Thus, the revelation of being HIV positive remains a disclosure fraught with meaning.

Metamorphosis: On the Conflict of Human Development and the Development of Creativity
ISBN: 9780881633535 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. First published in 1959, Metamorphosis remains one of the great works of developmental psychology of the past century. From his thoughtful meditation on the assumptions of classical Freudian psychoanalysis, among them the pleasure and reality principles, the relations of drive and affect, and the nature and causes of infantile amnesia, Schachtel moves on to profound reflections on the senses considered both in terms of their evolving relation to one another during maturation and as variable ingredients in the perception and cognition of the adult.

The Internal World and Attachment
ISBN: 9780881633610 / Angielski / Twarda / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. How, asks Geoff Goodman in The Internal World and Attachment, can we progress further in integrating the fruits of attachment research with the accumulated clinical wisdom of psychoanalytic theorizing about the internal world of object representations? The key, he answers, is to look more closely at the basic assumptions of each body of theory, especially those assumptions, whether embedded or explicit, that bear on the formation of psychic structure. Drawing on Kernberg's insights into the affective and instinctual substrata of psychic organizations, Goodman proposes that insecure...

ISBN: 9780881633665 / Angielski / Twarda / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The issue of same-gender sexual identity has challenged our understanding of psychological development and psychological intervention throughout the century just past and continues to provoke discussion in the century upon us. Over the past three decades, psychoanalysis advanced toward a contemporary perspective, which holds that the dynamics of sexual orientation must be an important element of the psychoanalytic process, but must be approached without prejudice regarding the outcome of analytic exploration of wish and desire. Taken together, the essays in Rethinking Psychoanalysis and...
