Reviews and Endorsements

"This book is essential and should be read by all psychoanalysts and students. Chervet’s deep and early interest in the concept of Après-coup (Nachträglichkeit) as an organizer of human thought and therefore of any analytic process is original and enthralling." - Marilia Aisenstein, Paris Psychoanalytical Society; editor, Psychosomatics Today: A Psychoanalytic Perspective

"Bernard Chervet is one of the most creative contemporary French psychoanalytic thinkers. In this book, he develops original contributions to psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice around the concept of Après-coup. It is a remarkable contribution to psychoanalytic thinking and practice." - Claudio Laks Eizirik, Former President, International Psychoanalytic Association; Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry, Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
