Description
Psychoanalytic Concepts and Technique in Development offers a comprehensive overview of contemporary psychoanalytic theory and clinical technique from a French perspective. Florence Guignard draws on the work of key figures such as Klein, Bion, and Winnicott to provide a thorough guide to major drives and concepts in classical psychoanalysis.
Guignard explores how psychoanalysts conceptualize their theoretical field and technical tools affects their practice, arguing that updating these tools is crucial for effective therapy. She examines the potential of neurosciences and physics to inform psychoanalytic thought, covering topics such as the deconstruction of the Oedipus Complex and links between sensorial elements and thinking.
This book combines significant insights with an accessible style, making it a valuable resource for psychoanalytic psychotherapists and analysts of all levels. By drawing on related disciplines like neurosciences and physics, Guignard provides a fresh perspective on the discipline's future direction.
