"Using the Transference" centres around two dominant themes - the old versus the new models of transference, and the role of transference in psychotherapy. As background information the book provides an historical overview of transference, counter-transference, and the therapeutic alliance. A number of detailed cases are provided, graphically demonstrating how transference is addressed in psychotherapy and briefly focusing on projective identification and enactment. This book is a must-read for both students and mental health professionals at the early stages of their careers, and a useful reference for more experienced professionals.
