The Mystery of Things
ISBN: 9780415212311 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Taking the reader right to the heart of psychotherapy, this text examines the mysterious aspects of the self that are revealed by analysis. The method of enquiry at the heart of psychoanalysis, that is, free association, runs contrary to everything that we are taught is the logical, rational, scientific way to acquire data. Yet it is only through using such an apparently illogical and subversive method that the pathological structures in thinking can be penetrated and the self underneath revealed and worked with by the analyst. Christopher Bollas focuses on the nature and effects of the free...

ISBN: 9781855755406 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Neville Symington traces the path along which he has travelled to become a person. This has run side by side with trying to become an analyst.
The author has made landmark discoveries while reading philosophy, sociology, history, and literature. Learning to paint, learning to fly a plane, and also the study of art and of aviation theory have opened up new vistas. This account is only a sketch--the completed picture will never materialize. It is therefore autobiographical but only in a partial sense. It is always emphasized that one's own personal experience of being psychoanalyzed...

Symbolization: Representation and Communication
ISBN: 9781855755901 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Because psychoanalysis is a science of subjectivity, it is no surprise that symbolism has been of central interest from its inception and early development.
There are few phenomena more obviously subjective than symbols. They conjure a particular fascination because of their enigmatic quality. For this reason, they manage to communicate something in an obscure manner. Thus, they partly hide. This duality and ambiguity approaches the fleeting and evanescent quality of subjectivity itself at its most subjective. Thinking in this descriptive way is not the most immediately helpful...

Key Papers in Literature and Psychoanalysis
ISBN: 9781855759589 / Angielski / Miękka / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since Freud invoked the Oedipus story to exemplify and verify his findings with patients and in analyzing his own dreams, psychoanalysis and literature have had a fruitful if often distrusting relationship. Literature and theory have increased enormously in range. Education no longer insists upon classics of Western literature as building blocks for understanding. Yet the tie between psychoanalysis and imaginative literature remains vital, and the two disciplines can interact vibrantly, as these selected essays of recent years from the International Journal of Psychoanalysis handsomely show....

ISBN: 9780791473009 / Angielski / Miękka / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Why do we continue to desire psychoanalysis?

In Desire of the Analysts, these and other questions are addressed by leading contributors from a variety of fields, including Sharon Nell, Deneen Senasi, Kaja Silverman, Henry Sussman, Domietta Torlasco, Pierre Zoberman, and Slavoj Zoizuek.

Lacan, Language, and Philosophy
ISBN: 9780791473450 / Angielski / Twarda / 199 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Lacan, Language, and Philosophy explores the linguistic turn in psychoanalysis taken by Jacques Lacan. Russell Grigg provides lively and accessible readings of Lacan and Freud that are grounded in clinical experience and informed by a background in analytic philosophy. He addresses key issues in Lacanian psychoanalysis, from the clinical (how psychosis results from the foreclosure of the signifier the Name-of-the Father; the father as a symbolic function; the place of transference) to the philosophical (the logic of the "pas-tout"; the link between the superego and Kant's categorical...

Lacan
ISBN: 9780674508538 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan (1901-1981) is a uniquely complex writer and the originator of an especially unsettling view of the human subject. But the singularity of Lacan's achievement has been understated by many of his critics. Often he is seen merely as a figure famous for being famous--an essential reference point in structuralist and poststructuralist debate--rather than as a theorist whose writings demand and reward detailed scrutiny. Malcolm Bowie traces the development of Lacan's ideas over the fifty-year span of his writing and teaching career. The primary focus...

From the Brink: Experiences of the Void from a Depth Psychology Perspective
ISBN: 9781855754447 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A commonly encountered experience of both analyst and analysand is that of the void. It is spoken about at different stages of therapy and refers to experiences that have different origins.
Sometimes the experience of the void is around a relatively limited aspect of the psyche but at other times the void seems much more global and threatens to engulf the entire personality; the whole individual psyche then seems threatened by the possibility of dissolution into nothingness. By drawing on the writings of both Jungian and psychoanalytic thinkers as well as on poetry,... A commonly encountered experience of both analyst and analysand is that of the void.

Skin in Psychoanalysis
ISBN: 9781855755161 / Angielski / Miękka / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Skin in Psychoanalysis is an important theoretical contribution, revising several authors starting with Freud in whose writing we can now discover multiple direct or indirect references to the skin. It adopts a decidedly complex point of view regarding the skin: the skin as source; the skin as object; the skin as protection and as a way of entrance; the skin as contact and as contagion; the skin -for two- within the relationship with the mother; the skin as envelope and as support; the skin as a shell presented as -second skin-; the skin as demarcation of individuality; the skin as a place of...

Freud's Converts
ISBN: 9781855755369 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work is an exploration of the relationship between psychotherapy and religion.
Sigmund Freud and Carl Rogers were chosen for this exposition because both of them were seduced by the high status given to science. Both founders of psychotherapies, they left a legacy that is not that of the scientists they claimed they were. The problematic relationship that each had with religion has had lasting effects on the work and attitudes of their respective followers. In order to explore this relationship effectively, Vicki Clifford begins with a critical examination of the... This work is an exploration of the relationship between psychotherapy and religion.

Sex Makes the World Go Around
ISBN: 9781855755468 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is well known that Freud laid great emphasis on sexual matters. In the years that followed, a distinction was drawn between sex and gender--the idea of gender identity was introduced. Human beings do not spend every minute of their lives copulating, but at every minute of their lives their gender identity is present, thus the statement that sex really does make the world go around.
Of course, as far as material reality is concerned, money and other economic factors also make the world go round. But we can never get away from our gender identity, and sexuality is so pervasive,... It is well known that Freud laid great emphasis on sexual matters.

Psychoanalytic Energy Psychotherapy
ISBN: 9781855755666 / Angielski / Miękka / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Psychoanalytic Energy Psychotherapy is the outcome of one psychoanalyst's encounter with the field known generically as energy psychology, which reveals how the conflicts and traumas active within the psyche are encoded as information within the body's energy system. It is inspired primarily by the remarkable and far-reaching work of Dr. Roger Callahan in his development of Thought Field Therapy. There were important figures before Dr. Callahan in the lineage-notably George Goodheart, the founder of Applied Kinesiology, who first explored muscle testing as a source of information about the...

ISBN: 9781855755857 / Angielski / Miękka / 299 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book compares different psychoanalytic thinking and models--from a rigorously Freudian perspective--on three concepts of great theoretical and clinical importance: Language, Symbolization, and Psychoses.
These concepts are significantly interwoven with each other both in personal development as well as in the atypical and individual forms of pathology. The authors have endeavored to reply to one of the foremost queries that has occupied Jacqueline Amati Mehler's thinking: whether and how the acquisitions of modern psychoanalysis have brought about changes in our criteria of...

Passion for the Human Subject : A Psychoanalytical Approach Between Drives and Signifiers
ISBN: 9781855755864 / Angielski / Miękka / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The condition of the human subject demands that he acquire his existence at the price of a real passion. And what indeed could inspire more passion than this ambiguous being, constantly trying to balance dynamically where nature and culture intersect? The psychoanalytical approach launched by Freud a century ago has constantly posited as a structural fact the precarious position of human subjectivity. It conceives the latter as knocked off center, even torn apart, by the different logics emanating from the instances that make up the psychical apparatus.
This book does not conceive... The condition of the human subject demands that he acquire his existence at the price of a real passion. And what indeed could inspire more passion th...

Since trauma is a thoroughly relational phenomenon, it is highly unpredictable, and cannot be made to fit within the scientific framework Freud so admired. In Toward a Psychology of Uncertainty: Trauma-Centered Psychoanalysis, Doris Brothers urges a return to a trauma-centered psychoanalysis. Making use of relational systems theory, she shows that experiences of uncertainty are continually transformed by the regulatory processes of everyday life such as feeling, knowing, forming categories, making decisions, using language, creating narratives, sensing time, remembering,...
