This much-awaited textbook makes accessible the ideas of one of the
most important thinkers of our time, as well as indicating how
Freud’s theories are put into clinical practice today.
The collection of papers have been written by some of the most
eminent psychoanalysts, both from Britain and abroad, who have made
an original contribution to psychoanalysis. Each chapter introduces
one of Freud’s key texts, and links it to contemporary
thinking in the field of psychoanalysis. The book combines a deep
understanding of Freud’s work with some of the most modern
debates surrounding it.
This book will be of great value across a wide spectrum of
courses in psychoanalysis, as well as to the scholar interested in
psychoanalytic ideas.
