Book SynopsisWhile most psychotherapies agree that therapeutic work in the 'here and now' has the greatest power to bring about change, few if any books have ever addressed the problem of what 'here and now' actually means.
Trade Review"Immensely important, indisputably major.....authoritatively straddling the spectrum encompassing psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, adult and child, neuro-science and phenomenological philosophy, and much else, a book which summates many years of preoccupation and collaborative labour, on his part, in a most lucid, concise, and comprehensive way." -- International Journal of Psychotherapy
"Stern writes very clearly so that complex concepts can be readily understood. . . . This book is a gift. . .[A] must-read in order to understand the in-depth work of psychotherapy." -- New Directions in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis
