    Book SynopsisWinner of the 2013 Sigourney Award!Belief and Imagination brings together Ronald Britton''s writing on these subjects over the last 15 years, exploring the concepts from a Kleinian perspective. The book covers: The status of phantasies in an individuals mind - are they facts or possibilities? How the notions of objectivity and subjectivity are interrelated and have their origins in the Oedipal triangle How phantasies which are held to be products of the imagination, can be accounted for in psychoanalytic terms. Britton also examines the relationship between psychic reality and fictional writing, and the ways in which belief, imagination and reality are explored in the works of Wordsworth, Rilke, Milton and Blake.Trade Review'Belief and Imagination is a pleasure to read and a reward to study. It confirms the author's status as one of the foremost contributors to modern psychoanalytic theory and practice. It is a clear and insightful book rich in clinical, theoretical, and applied psychoanalytic wisdom, and should be a valuable addition to the library of any psychoanalyst.' - Howard Levine, Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association, Vol. 50, No. 3, 2002'[this book] is in my view both traditional and revolutionary... In the tradition of the post Kleinians, Ronald Britton in Belief and Imagination breaks new ground.' - Marilyn Lawrence, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, Vol. 14, No. 1, 2000'Many book reviews end with a recommendation to read or to buy the book. In this case a recommendation is not enough. This book is essential reading for anyone wanting to keep psychoanalytic thought alive and well.' - Dr Anton Obholzer 'Belief and Imagination is a pleasure to read and a reward to study.

    Book SynopsisThe current interest in Jung shows no sign of abating, with international controversy surrounding the origins of analytical psychology. Jung in Contexts is a unique collection of the most important essays on Jung and analytical psychology over the past two decades.A comprehensive introduction traces the growth and development of analytical psychology and its institutions. The nine essays which follow place Jung, the man and his work, in three important contexts: historical, literary and intellectual. In historical context, Jung's visions during his confrontation with the unconscious, his attitude towards National Socialism, and the composition of his so-called autobiography are examined. Next, in literary context, two essays investigate Jung's reading of E.T.A. Hoffman, and Thomas Mann's reception of Jungian ideas. Finally, in intellectual context, Jung's work is viewed in terms of the traditions of German and French thought from which it drew so many impulses: SchopenhTrade ReviewThis collection of papers bears witness to Jung's fertility and originality, and also demonstrates that his thought is still influential in a variety of scholarly fields. - Anthony Storr

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd The Dove that Returns The Dove that Vanishes

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe nature of psychoanalysis seems contradictory - deeply personal, subjective and intuitive, yet requiring systematic theory and principles of technique.In The Dove that Returns, The Dove that Vanishes, Michael Parsons explores the tension of this paradox. As they respond to it and struggle to sustain creatively, analysts discover their individual identities. The work of outstanding clinicians such as Marion Milner and John Klauber is examined in detail. The reader also encounters oriental martial arts, greek Tragedy, the landscape painting of John Constable, a Winnicottian theory of creativity and a discussion of the significance of play in psychoanalysis. From such varied topics evolves a deepening apprehension of the nature of the clinical experience.Illustrated throughout , The Dove that Returns, The Dove that Vanishes will prove valuable to those in the field of psychoanalysis, and to those in the arts and humanities who are interested in contemTrade Review"Few books that I know are a panoramic, kaleidoscopic, dialectically based and aphoristic as Michael Parson's The Dove that Returns, The Dove that Vanishes... a book whose style is beyond question and whose message is profoundly meaningful. This is compromised of a sustained elucidation of the paradoxical nature of our clinical work, our theories and indeed our very identities as psychoanalysts. In all these realms, Parsons presents arguments to contain polarities of deliberateness and spontaneity, knowledge and surprise, credulousness and skepticism, and discipline and freedom."- Salman Akhtar, The International Journal of Psychoanalysis, Volume 83"Whatever their theoretical allegiance, everyone who reads this impressive book will be enriched by the experience."- Margaret Arden, The Psychotherapy Review"... a book of clarity and poignancy... This is a very highly recommended book both because of the importance of Parsons's ideas, and because of his engaging and moving manner of telling a story."- Steven Cooper, JAPA, Vol 50 No 3, 2002"Few books that I know are a panoramic, kaleidoscopic, dialectically based and aphoristic as Michael Parson's The Dove that Returns, The Dove that Vanishes... a book whose style is beyond question and whose message is profoundly meaningful.

    Book SynopsisIntimacy and Alienation puts forward the author''s unique paradigm for psychotherapy and counselling based on the assumption that each patient has suffered a disruption of the ''self'', and that the goal of the therapist is to identify and work with that disruption.Using many clinical illustrations, and drawing on self psychology, attachment therapy and theories of trauma, Russell Meares looks at the nature of self and how it develops, before going on to explore the form and feeling of experience when self is disrupted in a traumatic way, and focusing on ways towards the restoration of the self.Written in an accessible style from the author''s singular perspective, Intimacy and Alienation will appeal to professionals in the fields of psychotherapy, counselling, social work and psychiatry, as well as to students and the lay reader.Table of ContentsThe Self in Conversation.

    Book SynopsisA comprehensive compilation of Jung's work on dreams, this book is without parallel and provides the perfect introduction to his concepts to those unfamiliar with Jung's work.Trade Review'Not the least of Jung's services to his time was his demonstration of how the dreaming process in man, far from being archaic and redundant, was more relevant than ever.' - Laurens van der Post'He was on a giant scale ... he was a master physician of the soul in his insights, a profound sage in his conclusions. He is also one of western man's great liberators.' - J.B. Priestley'Next to Freud, no psychiatrist of today has advanced our insight into the nature of the psyche more than he has. He does not stop at its mechanism or treat it as natural science but as philosophy. But he is rescued from the tendency to academicism by his experience as a doctor; again and again, he derives from his psychiatric practice a distrust of pure theory and an original, fresh point of view.' - Hermann HesseTable of ContentsIntroduction to Counseling Military Couples.
