Description
Doubt, Conviction and the Analytic Process: Selected Papers of Michael Feldman This collection of essays by practising psychoanalyst Michael Feldman offers a profound exploration of the dynamics between patient and analyst. Through detailed descriptions of clinical interactions, Feldman reveals how patients communicate with analysts to understand themselves better. The author's work builds on the pioneering ideas of influential analysts such as Klein, Rosenfeld, and Joseph, shedding light on the complex interplay between patient and therapist. By examining this dynamic interaction, Feldman shows how analysts can balance doubt and uncertainty to gain a deeper understanding of their patients' thoughts and feelings. This book is an essential read for those interested in psychoanalysis, particularly practising psychoanalysts and those in training.
