Taylor & Francis Ltd Loss Developmental Cultural and Clinical Realms
Book SynopsisThe experience of loss is ubiquitous in human life, but its nature and impact have great variations. When loss is phase-specific, expected, and accompanied by compensatory supplies, it can lead to ego growth. When loss is untimely, unexpected, and unaccompanied by environmental ''holding,'' it becomes traumatic and needs clinical attention.This edited volume brings together a distinguished cadre of international contributors in order to explain the multifaceted and nuanced nature of loss from a variety of different perspectives. These clinicians, administrators, and writers delineate the great variability in the setting, antecedents, and consequences of loss. Development-facilitating and development-impeding losses are addressed and so are the losses that seem inevitable as one moves from childhood through adolescence and young adulthood to midlife and old age. Loss experienced by institutional organizations and war-torn societies is also examined. The book's ultimate focus iTrade Review"This collection of essays addresses the universal challenge of loss, something that none of us escapes in our lives. The editor and contributors elucidate the pain of loss and subsequent mourning states in varied contexts: loss of crucial parts of oneself, loss of love relationships, loss of one’s prized possessions, loss of one’s home, and loss of one’s country. The pre-existing central ideals in this realm are further elaborated and theoretically fine-tuned. This promises the reader a deeper understanding of a crucial human experience ‒ one we encounter at every turn in our work…and in our own lives. This book is well-worth reading." Henri Parens, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Thomas Jefferson University, Training and Supervising Analyst, Psychoanalytic Center of Philadelphia"In this wide ranging and comprehensive contribution to psychoanalysis and social science, Salman Akhtar and his contributors highlight the impact of different types of loss: normative, traumatic, actual, inevitable and invisible loss. They extend the scope of loss from individuals to organizations and war ravaged societies. The contributors exemplify their proposals with the help of poignant clinical vignettes, poetry, and powerful cinematic representations of mourning and loss. By fleshing out the important dynamics and multilayered consequences of loss, this book offers the reader an exceptionally rich intellectual and emotional experience. A must read!"

Taylor & Francis Ltd A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis
Book SynopsisThe science of psychoanalysis is now more than a century old. During this period, it has been established as the instrument offering the most profound understanding of the human mind, and as the most effective tool for treating psychic suffering we have at our disposal. A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis offers readers an introduction to this extraordinarily interesting discipline. In this short volume, Giuseppe Civitarese and Antonino Ferro explore psychoanalysis, which is at the same time a theory of unconscious psychic processes, a technique for investigating these, and a method for curing various forms of psychic suffering, by explaining some of its main themes and ideas. As the only introductory text to the increasingly popular post-Bionian theory of the analytic field, A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis examines the theory of dreams, the concept of the unconscious, the psychoanalytic clinic, the analysis of children and adolescents, and the historyTable of ContentsIntroduction 1. What is psychoanalysis? 2. The invention of the unconscious 3. Dream and the emotional field 4. The tools of treatment 5. The analysis of children and adolescents 6. One psychoanalysis or many?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Donald Meltzer
In this intelligent and insightful work, Meg Harris Williams presents a clear and readable introduction to the works of influential psychoanalyst Donald Meltzer. The book covers Meltzer's ideas on key themes including sexuality, dreams, psychosis, perversion and aesthetics, and his work with both children and adults.This book focuses especially on Meltzer's views on the nature of psychoanalysis itself, as an investigative method conducted by the cooperation between two people. His intuitive understanding of dreams is underscored by a scholarly interest in philosophy and linguistics. The book will give readers a window into Meltzer's clinical seminars and supervisions, as well as a comprehensive overview of his published work, all thoughtfully brought together by someone who worked with Meltzer for many years.Bringing Meltzer's ideas into contemporary context, this fresh approach to his work makes his rich and complex theories about our inner world accessible to all.
