This is the first book dedicated to the Contemporary Freudian
Tradition. In its introduction, and through its selection of
papers, it describes the development and rich diversity of this
tradition over recent decades, showing how theory and practice are
inseparable in the psychoanalytic treatment of children,
adolescents and adults. The book is organized around four major
concerns in the Contemporary Freudian Tradition: the nature of the
Unconscious and the ways that it manifests itself; the extension of
Freud's theories of development through the work of Anna Freud and
later theorists; the body and psychosexuality, including the
centrality of bodily experience as it is elaborated over time in
the life of the individual; and aggression. It also illustrates how
within the Tradition different exponents have been influenced by
psychoanalytic thinking outside it, whether from the Kleinian and
Independent Groups, or from French Freudian thinking. Throughout
the book there is strong emphasis on the clinical setting, in, for
example, the value of the Tradition's approach to the complex
interrelationship of body and mind in promoting a deeper
understanding of somatic symptoms and illnesses and working with
them. There are four papers on the subject of dreams within the
Contemporary Freudian Tradition, illustrating the continuing
importance accorded to dreams and dreaming in psychoanalytic
treatment. This is the only book that describes in detail the
family resemblances shared by those working psychoanalytically
within the richly diverse Contemporary Freudian Tradition. It
should appeal to anyone, from student onwards, who is interested in
the living tradition of Freud's work as understood by one of the
three major groups within British psychoanalysis.
