The chapters of this book, all written by experienced
psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapists, address different
aspects of the psychotherapeutic treatment with psychotic children
or adolescents. This volume collects the main contributions to the
fourth conference of the child and adolescent section of the EFPP,
held in Caen, France in September 2001, on the general topic of
"Psychotic Children and Adolescents and their Families."Anne
Alvarez's contribution reflects her long experience in treating
autistic and psychotic children and adolescents, as well as her
profound understanding of the relevance of recent developmental
research to the understanding of psychopathology. Britta Blomberg
draws on the treatment of two children with autism in her
meticulous study of the development of the concepts of space and
time and of the theory of mind. Julia Pestalozzi refers to the idea
of psychotic functioning in adolescence--as proposed by Moses and
Egle Laufer--that adolescents in a state of "psychotic functioning"
have their body image profoundly split between the pregenital body
image of childhood and the sexual body image of adolescence. In his
contribution, Didier Houzel describes a very early splitting in
autistic children between the male and female components of the
containing object, which prevents the transformation of his/her
sensory experiences into thinkable elements and, therefore, the
construction of an inner world. Suzanne Maiello discusses Houzel's
contribution in reference to her description of the prenatal
experience of a sound object by the fetus. The volume ends with two
"conversations" with senior clinicians. The work of both Genevieve
Haag and Raymond Cahn is not widely translated into English. The
publication of this volume is therefore a welcome opportunity to
present aspects of their work to an English-speaking
audience.Contributors: Anne Alvarez, Britta Blomberg, Raymond Cahn,
Genevieve Haag, Didier Houzel, Suzanne Maiello, Julia Pestalozzi,
and Maria Rhode"
