Description
The Infinite Question by Christopher Bollas explores the human impulse to question, from earliest childhood to adulthood. Detailed studies of real clinical practice illustrate a theory of psychoanalysis that privileges this drive.
Transcripts of real analytical sessions are accompanied by parallel commentaries, highlighting key aspects of the free associative method in practice. The book also discusses a wider theoretical framework, placing emphasis on Freud's theory of the logic of sequence.
This book will be invaluable to both new students and experienced psychoanalysts, offering a practice-based extension of theoretical ideas. It can be read on its own or as part of a companion volume, The Evocative Object World.
