Reviews and Endorsements

The essays in this thoughtfully constructed book open new and important vistas in our understanding of psychosis and the psychoses. These are certainly times that demand of psychoanalysis a return to the study of psychosis and the authors offer us an enlightening beginning to that task.

“Contrary to other writings, Freud (1925) stated that ‘the treatment of psychotic patient can be useful for the formulation of new theories, and the transference in psychotic patients is not completely absent. Transference is often not entirely absent but can be used to a certain extent’. Your book will be a mandatory study for all psychoanalysis scholars. The chapters dedicated to the evolution of the concept of neurosis and psychosis in Freud’s work are of great theoretical and clinical richness.
