Description

Taking the Group Seriously: Towards a Post-Foulkesian Group Analytic Theory by Farhad Dalal explores the evolution and limitations of group analysis theory within psychoanalysis. Dalal critiques the work of S.H.Foulkes, arguing that he failed to develop a distinct set of group concepts, instead relying on traditional individualistic frameworks. This book offers a new post-Foulkesian interpretation of group analytic theory, drawing on diverse subjects including sociology, biology, chaos theory, genetics, economics, game theory, and discourse theory. Through its six-part structure, the book examines the history of ideas behind group work, providing practical insights from the author's experience and incorporating the latest developments in the field.
