The landscape of psychoanalysis has changed, at times dramatically,
in the hundred or so years since Freud first began to think and
write about it. Freudian theory and concepts have risen, fallen,
evolved, mutated, and otherwise reworked themselves in the hands
and minds of analysts the world over, leaving us with a
theoretically pluralistic (yet threateningly multifarious)
diffusion of psychoanalytic viewpoints. To help make sense of it
all, Morris Eagle sets out to critically reevaluate fundamental
psychoanalytic concepts of theory and practice in a topical manner.
Beginning at the beginning, he reintroduces Freud's ideas in
chapters on the mind, object relations, psychopathology, and
treatment; he then approaches the same topics in terms of more
contemporary psychoanalytic schools. In each chapter, however,
there is an underlying emphasis on identification and integration
of converging themes, which is reemphasized in the final chapter.
Relevant empirical research findings are used throughout, thus
basic concepts - such as repression - are reexamined in the light
of more contemporary developments.
