Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Melanie Klein
Book SynopsisMelanie Klein remains one of the most important and influential figures in psychoanalysis. Klein pioneered the analysis of children and applied her insights on the infantile origins of unconscious drives to adult analysis.Meira Likierman''s study is the best available introduction to Melanie Klein''s thought and work.Trade Review"Klein has been quoted but she has never, until Likierman's book been properly read. This book reveals with patient lucidity just what is fascinating about Klein as a psychoanalytic theorist. It recovers her work, in other words, from the sentimentality and moralism in which her so-called followers have buried her. Likierman's Klein is a Klein for a new generation of readers."-Adam Phillips, author of On Kissing, Tickling and Being Bored"A useful corrective. Likierman's volume is an intellectual biography, more balanced than Phyllis Grosskurth's....For the most part chronologically organized, it describes Klein's ideas in an integrated, coherent way, using the intellectual context of Klein's works to elucidate meaning otherwise painstakingly rendered from the originals."--Choice, November 2001Table of ContentsFerenczi, Freud and Klein's Encounter with Psychoanalysis - The Development of a Child - The First Child Patients - Departure from Freud - Early Object, Physical Defences and Dissociation Processes - Ambivalence and Depressive States - Tragedy and Morality in the Depressive Position - Klein's Concept of Phantasy - The Paranoid-Schizoid Position - Protective Identification, Unintegrated States and Splitting - Two Accounts of Envy - Loneliness

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Tender Bud A Physicians Journey Through
Book SynopsisThe Tender Bud is the moving story of one woman''s journey through breast cancer. The woman in question happens to be a senior psychiatrist of broad learning and deep clinical insight. Madeleine Meldin weathered the crisis of breast cancer without the support of an immediate family and in the context of ongoing professional burdens. This book is the journal that she wrote for herself as an aid to coping with the personal upheaval of diagnosis, mastectomy, and the aftermath of treatment. It was written while these events unfolded. With arresting candor, Meldin chronicles her emotions at each stage of her odyssey - the recurrent cycles of denial, anxiety, and despair; the conflicting feelings engendered by her physicians, surgeons, and the treatment establishment in general; her struggle between resignation and emergent hopefulness. Unique to Meldin''s account is her ongoing juxtaposition of the different dimensions of having cancer. SimplTrade Review"The Tender Bud is a tender account of human proportion of the experience of breast cancer by a sensitive, sophisticated psychiatrist whose warm psychotherapeutic style enriches her life and ours. She illuminates the spirit's trial by fire from the cancer, its personal and social meanings, and the even more threatening treatment. It is the author's extraordinary eye for the telling details of everyday lived experience of suffering that is her chief gift to her audience, along with the grace of the person who emerges from the simple and direct prose. I wanted to meet her at the end. I wanted to tell her that her illness narrative had affected me, had made me come to know someone admirable in adversity, someone I would like to know as a friend when I am in adversity. Perhaps it is, after all, the tender mercies of the psychotherapeutically informed like that will save us, sentenced as we are to existential terminality in a banal bureaucratic culture. This book is a gift from the heart that deserves many friends."- Arthur Kleinman, M.D., Harvard Medical School Table of ContentsPrologue 1. Discovery 2. The Sacrifice of the Part for the Whole 3.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Psychiatrist in the Courtroom Selected Papers
Book SynopsisOver the course of an illustrious career, the late Bernard Diamond established himself as the preeminent forensic psychiatrist of the century. The Psychiatrist in the Courtroom brings together in a single volume Diamond''s pivotal contributions to a variety of important issues, including the nature of diminished capacity, the fallacy of the impartial expert, the predictability of dangerousness, and the unacceptability of hypnotically facilitated memory in courtroom proceedings. Ably introduced and edited by Jacques M. Quen, M.D., a close colleague of Diamond''s and leading historian of forensic psychiatry, these writings enable experts and neophytes alike to track Diamond''s evolving positions while clarifying where current legal and psychiatric opinion converge -- and diverge -- on a host of critical topics.For the forensic specialist, The Psychiatrist in the Courtroom is not only an invaluable reference work but a compassionate reminder of the cliniciaTrade Review"Bernard Diamond's influence on forensic psychiatry during the last half of the twentieth century is unsurpassed in clarity and wisdom.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Annual of Psychoanalysis V 25 025
Book SynopsisVolume 25 of The Annual is dedicated to the memory of Michael Franz Basch, who achieved distinction as both a psychoanalytic theorist of the first rank and an authority on the nature and conduct of dynamic psychotherapy. A wide range of original contributions bear witness to his theoretical, clinical, and educational interests.A number of papers remind us of Basch's prominence as a self-psychological theorist: Elson's self-psychological reappraisal of self-pity, dependence, and manipulation as self-states; Ornstein's developmental perspective on power, self-esteem, and destructive aggression; Tolpin's review of sexuality from the standpoint of normal self development; and Wolf's discussion of self psychology and the aging self. Basch's life-long educational concerns gain expression in Goldberg's discussion of clinical teaching, particularly the challenge of leading of case conferences; and Ornstein's and Kay's thoughtful consideration of enduring difficulties in American medical education.Additional highlights of the volume include: Fawcett's consideration of the role of pharmacotherapy in psychodynamic treatment; Jaffe's consideration of the applicability of hierarchical models to assessment and intervention in brief psychotherapy; Galatzer-Levy's review of the witch metapsychology; Gedo's analysis of mythic themes in the operas Don Giovanni and Der Rosenkavalier; Modell's reflections on metaphor and affects; and Kernberg's discussion of a new psychoanalytic mainstream, which he compares and contrasts with a parallel convergence of Kohutian and interpersonal analytic approaches. Many of these contributions incorporate reflections on Basch as a teacher and colleague, and the entire volume is framed by Goldberg's moving tribute. Analysts and psychotherapists sharing Basch's commitment to academic and clinical excellence and his keen awareness of the pragmatic requirements of doing effective therapy will find in Volume 25 a cornucopia of riches.Table of ContentsPart I: Michael Franz Basch, M.D., 1929-1996: In Memoriam.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Transference Shibboleth or Albatross
Book SynopsisThe 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 effectively overturns any theory that posits a linear deterministic relationship between early childhood and adult psychic functioning, including the adult patient''s treatment behavior toward the analyst. No less trenchantly, he shows how contemporary chaos theory complements developmental research by making the very endeavor of historical reconstruction - of backward prTrade Review"Schachter provides us with a searching and provocative exploration of the classical conceptualization of the transference as a 'transfer' of past experience and disposition into present relationships, along with a plea to replace this construct with the notion of Habitual Relationship Patterns as they operate in the present. Transference: Shibboleth or Albatross? represents a fully logical extension of the ongoing shift in contemporary analytic discourse from the precepts of a one-person psychology to the relational turn into the precepts of a two-person psychology. It has significant implications for our conception of transference and our understanding of psychoanalytic technique and is important reading for all those concerned - pro and con - with what is happening to traditional psychoanalytic theory today."- Robert S. Wallerstein, M.D., Past President, American Psychoanalytic Association“This book by a distinguished psychoanalyst eloquently advocates a major transformation of the psychoanalytic enterprise. It is a very important contribution to a rational dialogue between psychoanalysis and its unsparing critics. Highlights of the book are the disavowal of the received etiologic theory of transference, and a challenge to the venerable tenet that durably effective treatment of a psychiatric disorder requires the therapist’s knowledge of its etiology. Indeed, it is a very timely work."- Adolf Gruenbalm, Ph.D., Andrew Mellon Professor of Philosophy of Science"Schachter shows us the direction that must be taken if psychoanalysis is to have a future as an effective clinical method and a serious intellectual discipline. He has the courage and independence of mind to call into question fundamental components of received wisdom, unsupported assumptions that have long hobbled free inquiry in our field."- Owen Renik, M.D., San Fracisco Psychoanalytic InstituteTable of ContentsTransference and the Psychoanalytic Identity.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Disaster Psychiatry Intervening When Nightmares
Book SynopsisDisaster Psychiatry: Intervening When Nightmares Come True captures the state of disaster psychiatry in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. This emergent psychiatric specialty, which is increasingly separated from trauma and grief psychiatry on one hand and military psychiatry on the other, provides psychotherapeutic assistance to victims during, and in the weeks and months following, major disasters. As such, disaster psychiatrists must operate in the widely varying locales in which natural and man-made disasters occur, and they must establish their role among the chaotic array of organizations involved in direct disaster response. Editors Anand Pandya and Craig Katz have captured the challenge and promise of disaster psychiatry through first-person narratives. We hear from psychiatrists who have encountered disasters at various stages of their career and in widely varying social, political, and personal conteTrade Review"Disaster Psychiatry provides a unique opportunity to witness psychiatrists using a range of skills to help others in nontraditional and flexible ways. The experience of contending with one's own feelings in the midst of staggering crisis and of simultaneously drawing on one's therapeutic skills to provide help in radically unfamiliar settings -- this is the stuff of remarkable stories. In the end, the basic talent of the psychiatrists who tell these stories, their humanity, and their compassionate creativity in devising ways to help disaster victims make for compelling presentations. This book will be an invaluable learning experience for all mental health professionals willing to embrace the enormous challenges of helping others at those critical moments 'when nightmares come true."- Herbert Pardes, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, New York-Presybterian Medical Centers"This volume is an invaluable tutorial in disaster psychiatry that should be required reading for all psychiatrists. Remarkably, most psychiatrists have had little formal training in disaster work. Drawing valuably on their unique experiences in New York, Pandya and Katz have assembled a moving selection of firsthand experiences, interwoven with authoritative information about how psychiatrists can help when disaster strikes."- John M.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Annual of Psychoanalysis V 32 Psychoanalysis
Book SynopsisPsychoanalysis and Women, Volume 32 of The Annual of Psychoanalysis, is a stunning reprise on theoretical, developmental, and clinical issues that have engaged analysts from Freud on. It begins with clinical contributions by Joyce McDougall and Lynne Layton, two theorists at the forefront of clinical work with women; Jessica Benjamin, Julia Kristeva, and Ethel Spector Person, from their respective vantage points, all engage the issue of passivity, which Freud tended to equate with femininity. Employing a self-psychological framework, Christine Kieffer returns to the Oedipus complex and sheds new light on the typically Pyrrhic oedipal victory of little girls.Section III broadens the historical context of contemporary theorizing about women by offering the personal reminiscences of Nancy Chodorow, Carol Gilligan, Brenda Solomon, and Malkah Notman. A final section, dedicated to women who shared psychoanalysis, features historical essays on Ida Bauer (Freud's Dora), Anna Freud, Dorothy Burlingham, Edith Jacobson, and Therese Benedek, along with Linda Hopkins's revealing interview of Marion Milner. Of special note is Marian Tolpin's examination of three women - Bauer, Helene Deutch, and Anna Freud - who helped shape Freud's notion of the femail castration complex, and Elisabeth Young-Bruehl's exploration of how two women - Anna Freud and Dorothy Burlingham - developed parent-infant observation.Psychoanalysis and Women is an extraordinary chronicle of the distance traveled since Freud characterized women's sexual life as the dark continent. The contributors vitalize a half century of theory with the lessons of biography, and they broaden clinical sensibilities by drawing on recent developmental, gender-related, and socio-psychological research. In doing so, they attest to the ongoing reconfiguration of Freud's dark continent and show the psychoanalytic psychology of women to be very much a revolution in progress.Table of ContentsPart I.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Analyst in the Inner City Race Class and
Book SynopsisIn 1995, Neil Altman did what few psychoanalysts did or even dared to do: He brought the theory and practice of psychoanalysis out of the cozy confines of the consulting room and into the realms of the marginalized, to the very individuals whom this theory and practice often overlooked. In doing so, he brought together psychoanalytic and social theory, and examined how divisions of race, class and culture reflect and influence splits in the developing self, more often than not leading to a negative self image of the other in an increasingly polarized society.Much like the original, this second edition of The Analyst in the Inner City opens up with updated, detailed clinical vignettes and case presentations, which illustrate the challenges of working within this clinical milieu. Altman greatly expands his section on race, both in the psychoanalytic and the larger social world, including a focus on whiteness which, he argues, is socially constructed in relation to blackness. However, he admits the inadequacy of such categorizations and proffers a more fluid view of the structure of race. A brand new section, Thinking Systemically and Psychoanalytically at the Same Time, examines the impact of the socio-political context in which psychotherapy takes place, whether local or global, on the clinical work itself and the socio-economic categories of its patients, and vice-versa. Topics in this section include the APAâs relationship to CIA interrogation practices, group dynamics in child and adolescent psychotherapeutic interventions, and psychoanalytic views on suicide bombing.Ranging from the day-to-day work in a public clinic in the South Bronx to considerations of global events far outside the clinicâs doors (but closer than one might think), this book is a timely revision of a groundbreaking work in psychoanalytic literature, expanding the import of psychoanalysis from the centers of analytical thought to the margins of clinical need.Trade Review"It was predicted that The Analyst in the Inner City would become a classic. It has. In this second edition, Neil Altman expands his exploration of the vexed relationship between psychoanalysis and race, class, gender, and community as these are shaped by broad social and political forces. The book expresses a rare combination of experience at the coal face, highly sophisticated theoretical analysis, scholarly research, and thoughtful, ethical reflections on the challenges to psychoanalysis of otherness and similarity. Altman's focus on a three-person psychology promotes a lived practice in the clinic that takes account of diversity while holding the analytic frame as universally relevant. He hereby brings the social and the political into the clinic as illustrated by cogent case examples. In his astute analysis of suicide bombings and torture informed by Klein, object relations, and intersubjectivity, Altman reciprocally brings the analytic to bear on the political. He again does so with an authority borne of experience given his pivotal role in organizing opposition to psychologists' collusion with detention centers. Neil Altman is a person of stature and this interesting, informative, illuminating, and deeply ethical book is a testament to this." - Gillian Straker, University of Sydney, Australia"The Analyst in the Inner City shatters assumptions and brings penetrating light to our understanding of psychological life at the social margins. Utilizing the power of an exquisitely attuned clinical sensibility, Altman provides us with a masterful blend of intimate therapeutic engagement and incisive theoretical conceptualization, thereby bridging the gulf that all too often occludes our ability to see complex social issues simultaneously as interior, subjective realities and as "objective" forces that act on us and shape our understanding of ourselves and those around us. This groundbreaking work should be required reading in the mental health disciplines as well as social scientists working at the intersections of race, social class, and culture." - Ricardo Ainslie, author, Long Dark Road: Bill King and Murder in Jasper"Psychoanalytic theory gets its comeuppance in Altman's scholarly analysis of its embeddedness in philosophical and sociopolitical traditions that promote racism and classism, obscuring its potential value to the embattled clinic worker. Usefully addressing the longstanding rift between clinical social work and psychoanalysis, Altman draws on a postmodern relational psychoanalytic perspective, demonstrating its compatability with the realities of work in clinical settings. In a series of rich and candid clinical examples, he demonstrates how stultifying yet unrecognized transference/countertransference entanglements frequently arise around issues of culture, race, and social class, and provides perceptive, innovative approaches to how they might be better recognized and beneficially engaged. A thought-provoking read for the social theorist, essential for students of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, and a respectful, invaluable resource for all clinicians on the front lines who want to deepen, enliven, and empower their work." - Margaret Black, co-author, Freud and Beyond"Altman's second edition of The Analyst in the Inner City is much more than a revision of the first. This text, like its predecessor, will undoubtedly lay claim as a seminal reference for its breadth and depth, a soulful, psychic journey in the psychoanalytic study of race, class, and culture, as well as how they are omnipresent in the treatment process. This book is compelling reading for the serious novice and the senior clinician who genuinely wants to understand the impact of culture on the psychoanalytic field of study, as well as the impact of its historical, theoretical splits and dilemmas, as they impact on our clinical thinking and practive today. Altman elucidates how theory, culture, class, race, politics, and economics are inextricably interwoven in clinical treatment, despite our myopic tendencies. Instead of simply bashing the new wave of evidence-based treatments as the singular criteria for treatment, he counters with how we can make psychoanalytic thinking more relevant to our current social ills and conflicts on both a national and international plane." - Kirkland C. Vaughans, editor, Journal of Infant, Child, and Adolescent Psychotherapy"It was predicted that The Analyst in the Inner City would become a classic. It has.

He raises the challenging question of whose needs are being met in such work and goes on to consider the importance of psychoanalysis and social issues, issues of racism, culture and ethnicity, of thinking systemically, the impact of manic society and how 'psychoanalysis is a potentially powerful force for change at both the individual and social levels.' There is much that is important in this book for all analysts and therapists working in inner city practices and organizations." - Journal of Analytical Psychology"Although The Analyst in the Inner City is indeed about the subject indicated in the title, its scope is far greater, as is its importance for any practicing clinician. With thoroughness, wide-ranging curiosity, and an impressive capacity for self-reflection, Altman leads us through matters of theory and technique as understood within the inevitable social, cultural, and racial contexts within which all clinicians work... Throughout the book, Altman fully and generously describes his own clinical experiences in great detail and with a reflectiveness and honesty that not only provides many sparks of recognition in the reader but also encourages the reader to trust what follows...Altman encourages those of us who are clinicians to expand the physical boundaries of our practices and, even more importantly, to embrace the idea that the psychodynamic understanding of all those with whom we engage can be immesurably enriched by the inclusion of race, culture, and social class in our theorizing." - Constance Goldberg, LCSW, in Psychoanalytic Social Work"This book is in its second edition and deservedly so; it tackles crucial but often neglected issues central to clinical practice...Altman's work is ambitious in its scope and densely crammed with thoughts and ideas...Altman examines his own practice with a level of honesty that is courageous...His humility in describing his more personal struggles adds to the success of a book that sets about raising the reader's level of consciousness." - Geraldine Crehan, Journal of Child PsychotherapyTable of ContentsIntroduction.

Book Synopsis'As the problems raised in this book are fundamental to learning they have a long history of investigation and discussion. In phsycho-analytical practice, particularly with patients displaying symptoms of disorders of thought, it becomes clear that psycho-analysis has added a dimension to problems if not to their solution. 'This book deals with emotional experiences that are directly related both to theories of knowledge and to clinical psycho-analysis, and that in the most practical manner.'- Wilfred R.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Klein
Book SynopsisMelanie Klein (1882-1960) was a pioneer of child analysis whose work with children enabled her to gain insight on the deepest states of the mind and thus to make a fundamental contribution to psychoanalytic theory. A pupil and follower of Freud, she investigated what he called the dim and shadowy era of early childhood, developing theories and techniques which, although they remain controversial, have had a profound influence not only on clinical psychoanalysis but also on fields outside it. Her understanding of the paranoid-schizoid mechanisms and of the role of envy extended the range of patients who can be psychoanalyzed, to include those suffering from borderline states between neurosis and psychosis. And her work shed light on the psychological basis of ethics, on theories of thinking, on group relations, and on aesthetics. The author worked with Melanie Klein and is now one of Britain''s leading psychoanalysts.
