The Baby and the Drive presents a new reading of psychoanalytic
drive theory, as well as offering clinical tools for early
identification of difficulties and intervention with babies and
their parents. This volume demonstrates that the concept of the
drive is the crucial factor in early life. The drive is presented
as a force with pathways that are established in the newborn's
psychic development. Four drive fields are distinguished, which are
activated during the first year, and the volume examines the points
at which they may encounter difficulties and how these difficulties
may be treated. The Baby and the Drive explains that access to the
drives and their activation orients work with the newborn-an
operation at once fundamental and indispensable if researchers
accept the existence of a subject in the newborn. Allowing a new
orientation in work with newborns and infants, this volume will be
a valuable resource for academics, scholars, and students of
Lacanian studies and Lacanian analysis. It will also be of great
interest to Lacanian psychologists and Lacanian psychoanalysts in
practice and in training.
