In Talking with Patients, Shapiro shows how to balance this clinical intuition with precise technique. Combining contributions from intersubjective theory with those of self psychology, he demonstrates to readers how to monitor their patients' responses as well as read their own. Shapiro adds to the empathic, listening orientation of self psychology the utility of inter-action and even confrontation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Talking with Patients, Sanford Shapiro provides an eminently practical and user-friendly guide to the clinical application of contemporary psychoanalytic frameworks, including self psychology, control mastery theory, and the intersubjective viewpoint. Therapists at all levels of experience will appreciate and profit from this richly illustrated, down-to-earth text. -- Robert D. Stolorow, Ph.D.\u003cbr\u003eThis beautifully written book is a moving personal account of analytic process. Sanford Shapiro demonstrates his evolving analytic competence with a series of absorbing clinical cases as well as elegant short vignettes. Encompassing an analytic education that spans three decades, he is as generous to his many teachers and supervisors as he is wisely critical of their shortcomings. In brief, this volume is entertaining, informative, and contemporary, and successfully addresses all mental health professionals. -- Morton Shane, M.D.\u003cbr\u003eTalking with Patients is the work of a master psychoanalytic clinician who is able to use and transcend rules in working creatively with patients. He shares with us his personal professional journey from an authoritarian, drive-dominated, analytic orientation to an emphasis on listening to the patient from the patient's perspective, informed by self psychological theory. For Dr. Shapiro, theory guides but does not dictate, as he helps us to walk the path of creative, spontaneous, and theoretically informed interchange in the psychotherapeutic arena. The book is rich with straightforward and beautifully illustrative in-depth case material. The beginner as well as the sophisticate will be affected by this book. No reader will turn away untouched. -- James L. Fosshage, Ph.D.","brand":"Jason Aronson Inc.
