Previous owner's sticker to front free endpaper. Inked underlining to pages. Underlining does not obscure text. Binding is sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: 'It is characteristic of some forms of scientific genius to alter not just what we see in the world, but how we see it - not just the view, but the lens. One thinks of Freud's discovery of the transference, or of Melanie Klein's attention to the play of children. Wilfred Bion's study of groups and group processes also has this quality. More than the content of what he saw and captured in the concepts of two modes of mental functioning in groups and in the differentiation of the basic assumptions, it was the way he saw or, more broadly, the way he sensed the emotional life of the individual in the group, and in the first instance his own, that opened up a quite new territory for exploration. Those of us whose practice takes place primarily in the institutional or social domain can find in his more psychoanalytic work seeds of new thought extending beyond the consulting room.Going "beyond the confines" might perhaps more generally stand as a metaphor for Bion's enterprise.(Publisher). 9" X 5 3/4". xvi, 112pp. Mild rubbing and shelf wear to covers, corners, and edges of paper wraps.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This tract was commissioned from Donald Meltzer and Martha Harris in 1976 by the Organisation for Economic and Cultural Development as part of a project to develop policies and programmes that would support families in their educational task. It was included in Sincerity: Collected Papers of Donald Meltzer ed. A. Hahn (1994) but has never until now been published as an independent work in English, though it has been published in French, Spanish and Italian and has had extensive use in those countries by therapists, teachers, teacher-trainers and social workers.It is a unique work owing to its integration of a psychoanalytical theory of learning with an ecological conception of how the various systems involved in the educational process are interconnected, and as such is still of great present-day relevance, both to clinical and educational practitioners and to policy-makers. A unique psychoanalytic perspective on family patterns and cultural educability, originally commissioned by the Organisation for Economic and Cultural Development as part of a project to develop policies and programmes that would support families in their educational task.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. All around us, the world is splintering into "us" versus "them": Brexit, Donald Trump vs Hillary Clinton, the Syrian Civil War, the return of totalitarian parties in Europe to electoral success, and the rise of the alt-right and white supremacists in the US. Neofascism is on the rise worldwide with worrying echoes of the past whilst politicians scrap amongst themselves over conflicting ideologies. Dr Jonathan Sklar brings his razor-sharp analytic skills out of the consulting room and into society. His searing insights into why our world is fragmenting around us need to be read and need to be heard. It is time for psychoanalysis to shine a light on the wider world and go against the current desire for quick soundbites and easy answers and, instead, engage our consciousness to truly understand, challenge, and engage with the political landscape. Jonathan tells us, "Each generation must pick up the political thought and action of confronting fascism." This book is his rallying cry to our generation and is a deeply relevant, thoughtful, and important book for our times. Today sees the rise of nationalism, the return of totalitarian parties in Europe to electoral success, and the rise of the alt-right and white supremacists in the US. Thus, there is urgency for psychoanalysts, with their understanding of cruelty, sadomasochism, perversion, and other mental mechanisms, to speak out. Jonathan Sklar has risen to the challenge with this timely, thought-provoking, and, at times, upsetting work. Dark Times starts with a look at European history in terms of monuments and mourning, before moving into storytelling and the elision of thought and history at this current time, including harrowing detail of the brutalities inflicted by ISIS on the Yazidi, and concludes with a meditation on the relationship between cruelty in the early environment and hatred of the other within society, with particular focus on racism in the US. Sklar goes against the grain of brief sound bites, which are an aid to quickly pass over painful knowledge. Instead, he goes into detail to give extremely dark, horrid occurrences, and the human beings on the receiving end, respect and understanding, which enables the reader greater access to allowing unconscious things to be made more conscious, highlighting the quality of humanity in human beings. Also, listening to these stories enables us to become more aware, not only of what is going on over there, but also what is happening here, because in our increasingly joined-up world, here is always implicated and affected too. By ridding ourselves of the illusions of our political times, we can find greater freedom to think, develop, challenge, and create hope, for the future of our children and our grandchildren, as well as for ourselves. Dark Times is a timely, thought-provoking, and, at times, upsetting work that is a must- read for all those looking for a deeper understanding of today's world.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The increase in the number of non-binary children and adults in our society raises important treatment questions as well as much controversy. It seems essential that analysts and candidates grapple with the challenges this change in society presents. As we struggle in our psychoanalytic societies to diversify our membership and broaden our understanding of difference, this collection offers an opportunity for further discussion and study of one of the most important issues of our time. The opening essay by editor Shari Thurer provides a clear overview of recent cultural changes and the evolution of thinking about gender identification by the American Psychoanalytic Association. Next is an autobiographical essay by long-term non-binary individual Robin Haas plus a clinical reflection on Haas' contribution by Rita Teusch. A recent account of an individual becoming non-binary from Francesca Spence is followed by the reactions of their parents, L. Harry Spence and Robin Ely. After that are psychoanalytic thoughts about the body and gender by Malkah Notman and reflections on gender from Dan Jacobs. The book ends with an extensive bibliography on the subjects of transsexuality and non-binary gender by Oren Gozlan Beyond the Binary: Essays on Gender introduces readers to current ideas about gender fluidity and choice, as well as giving voice to those who have chosen to be non-binary. This is a must-read for all practising clinicians that will help broaden their perspective on this growing issue. This is the fourth publication sponsored by the Library Committee of the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and the first published by Phoenix. AUTHOR: Shari Thurer is a psychoanalytically trained psychologist practicing in Boston and an adjunct associate professor at Boston University. A cutting-edge selection of essays to explore the growth of the incidence and prevalence of non-binary gender. With contributions from psychoanalytic experts and those with lived experience: Robin J. Ely, Francesca Ely-Spence, Oren Gozlan, Robin Haas, Daniel H. Jacobs, Malkah T. Notman, Lewis Harwood Harry Spence, Rita K. Teusch and Shari Thurer.

This intensity persisted throughout the two days, leading to a number of the fascinating discussions. - CONTENTS: Preface / Paul Williams -- Introduction / Philip McGarry -- The nature and function of aggression / Donald Campbell -- Discussion of Donald Campbell's paper -- Which violence and whose violence? Questions arising in the psychotherapy of aggressive children / Anne Alvarez -- Discussion of Ann Alvarez's paper -- Violence to body and mind: treating patients who have killed / Carine Minnie -- Discussion of Carine Minnie's paper -- The interpretation of violence / James Gilligan -- Discussion of James Gilligan's paper -- From action to communication: the transformation of aggression in childhood / Marie Zaphiriou Woods -- Aggression and violence in adolescence / Marianne Parsons -- Discussion of Marianne Parsons' paper -- The preverse fascination of destructiveness / Paola Capozzi and Franco De Masi -- Discussion of Paola Capozzi and Franco De Masi's paper -- Aggression: social and political aspects / Lord Alderdice -- Discussion of Lord Alderdice's paper -- Plenary session / Chair, Brian Martindale -- Closing remarks by Philip McGarry.
