Damage and reparation are central themes of human existence.
Melanie Klein, among other pivotal discoveries, noted our capacity
for destructiveness towards others and ourselves. More importantly,
she accented the centrality of reparation for mental health.
Acceptance of the truth, 'inner' and 'outer', is essential to this
process.The author goes on to explain the phenomenon of reparation
around the themes of truth (aletheia), faith (pistis) and
repentance/transformation (metanoia), especially as they appear in
the philosophical works of Martin Heidegger and the psychoanalyst
Wilfred Bion. He then continues following the phenomenon of
metanoia, tracing it sequentially in the works of Melanie Klein,
Wilfred Bion, Martin Heidegger, C.G. Jung and R.D. Laing. These
thinkers have a surprisingly high degree of reflection upon and
import into common, everyday lived experience. Brent Potter's work
concludes with a critique of psychiatry, cognitive-behavioral and
manualised approaches to psychological distress. He then presents
modalities and programs, utilizing a metanoia perspective, that are
rising to replace them.
