Description

Understanding Personal Relations: A New Approach to Human Experience Personal relationships are fundamental to our lives, shaping who we become and providing our most vital experience of being human. This book presents a comprehensive account of Ronald Fairbairn's mature theory, offering a positive perspective on collective possibilities. The book explores the connections between Fairbairn's work and that of John Macmurray and Ian Suttie, including their relevance to realist philosophy, psychoanalysis, attachment theory, and the politics of personal relations. Key topics include internal objects and inner reality, Fairbairn's theory of art, and the preconscious in his model of mind. This book will be valuable for anyone interested in psychoanalysis, particularly in relation to its implications for society, politics, and the arts.
