Description
Understanding Mental Objects by Meir Perlow provides a comprehensive exploration of how individuals relate to and perceive others. This groundbreaking study clarifies the changing meanings of mental object concepts across various psychoanalytic schools, from Freud's associates to Winnicott and Kohut. The book delves into the historical development of these concepts, discussing theoretical issues underlying them. It also examines the conceptual and clinical differences between major concepts, as well as their relationships to contemporary psychoanalytic debates. A valuable resource for psychoanalysts and psychologists, this long-overdue clarification of mental object concepts offers a wide-ranging and imaginative grasp of the different theories about objects.
