The book reviews psychoanalytic theory with the aim of developing a
evolutionarily feasible model of social behavior and personality
that can help to bridge the gap between psychoanalysis and
neuroscience.In bringing together various psychoanalytic theories
with aspects of ethology, sociology, and behaviorism, the book
seeks to overcome the theoretical impasse faced by cognitive
psychology and cognitive neuroscience in their endeavors to
understand how the brain has evolved to organize complex social
behavior in humans. The book is of academic interest, addressing
those working in behavioral sciences who want to gather what can be
learned from the rich body of psychoanalytic theory for the sake of
advancing the goal shared by all behavioral sciences: to elucidate
the principles of regulation of social behavior and personality and
understand where and how we can find their neural underpinnings. It
advocates that brain-social behavior relationship can only be
understood if we learn from and integrate psychoanalytic insights
gained across the last century from clinical work by what are often
considered to be rival schools of thought. The book should also be
of interest to psychoanalysts looking for a systematic and
integrative overview of psychoanalytic theories, an overview that
reaches across ego psychology, object relations theory, attachment
theory, self psychology, and Lacanian theory. The book is not,
however, a critique of psychoanalytic theory or a review of its
historical development; it emphasizes consistencies and
compatibilities rather than differences between psychoanalytic
schools of thought.
