The best simply got better. The first edition of this book was
already quite simply the best introduction to psychoanalysis ever
written and has been appropriately extremely popular with teachers
and students alike. The thoroughly updated second edition retains
all the powerful features of the first including its remarkable
clarity and accessibility. The field will be greatly indebted to
these authors for many years. - Professor Peter Fonagy, University
College London A Short Introduction to Psychoanalysis offers a
user-friendly introduction to arguably the most misunderstood of
all the psychological therapies. This fully updated and revised
second edition explains what psychoanalysis really is and provides
the reader with an overview of its basic concepts, historical
development, critiques and research base. Demonstrating the far
reaching influence of psychoanalysis, the authors - all practicing
psychoanalysts - describe how its concepts have been applied beyond
the consulting room and examine its place within the spectrum of
other psychological theories. The text is enlivened by numerous
clinical examples. New to this edition, the book o discusses parent
infant psychotherapy and mentalization-based therapy (MBT) o
further investigates psychotherapy in the NHS and the IAPT
programme, with more on the debate between CBT and analytic
approaches o includes more on dreaming and attachment theory, with
added examples o includes new research studies and addresses the
new field of psychosocial studies. This down-to-earth guide
provides the ideal `way-in' to the subject for new trainees. For
anyone thinking of becoming a psychoanalyst, the book also provides
information on the training process and the structure of the
profession.
