Yet in the social, psychological and political sciences, there is no theoretical paradigm through which we might understand them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Juliet Mitchell, brimming as usual with ideas, insights and reflections, has turned her attention to sibling relationships as the neglected and much underestimated influence on an individual’s identity formation. Love, hate, sexual experience, the shaping of gender roles, suffering and survival strategies are pursued as the sibling exchange. A work to provoke thought and discussion packed with real life and literary evidence.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eOlwen Hufton University of Oxford\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"In 1974, Mitchell’s \u003ci\u003ePsychoanalysis and Feminism\u003c\/i\u003e offered a major challenge to a resistant Anglo-Saxon feminism with her compelling case that psychoanalysis, most often seen by feminists to be part of the problem, was rather a powerful resource for feminist explanation and understanding of male domination, female oppression. Almost thirty years on, with \u003ci\u003eSiblings\u003c\/i\u003e, she has made a second, perhaps even more radical intervention. Her analysis of the lateral relations of siblings and peers promises to transform many of the recurrent issues and debates of contemporary feminism. ... This new book offers richly stimulating resources that should fuel feminist scholarship and debate for many years.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eTerry Lovell, Warwick University\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Illustrations. \u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Siblings and Psychoanalysis: an Overview.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Did Oedipus have a Sister?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Sister–Brother\/Brother–Sister Incest.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Looking Sideways: ‘A Child is being Beaten’.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 The Difference between Gender and Sexual Difference.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Who’s Been Sitting in My Chair?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Attachment and Maternal Deprivation: How did John Bowlby Miss the Siblings?.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 In our Own Times: Sexuality, Psychoanalysis and Social Change.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Conclusion: Siblings and the Engendering of Gender.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences and Select Bibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Wiley and Sons Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49083584938327,"sku":"9780745632216","price":15.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780745632216.jpg?v=1725549400","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/siblings-9780745632216","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
