Description
This book presents a new approach to psychoanalytical exposition, exploring the complex interplay between love and hatred in human psychology. Melanie Klein and Joan Riviere examine how our unconscious mental processes shape our emotions and actions.
The authors delve into the origins of these impulses in infancy, revealing how they continue to influence adult mental life. They discuss the various adaptations individuals use to balance their natural tendencies towards both creation and destruction, striving for security and gratification.
