{"product_id":"unconscious","title":"Unconscious","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Unconscious: A Contemporary Introduction\u003c\/i\u003e, Joseph Newirth presents a critical and comparative analysis of the unconscious and its evolution from a positivist to a postmodern frame of reference. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book presents five theories, each of which offers different and important conceptualizations of the unconscious, and each of which contains a rich palate of ideas through which to approach clinical work. These psychoanalytic theories are thought of as spokes on a wheel emanating from the center of Freud’s concept of the unconscious. In addition to presenting Freud’s development of the unconscious, Newirth includes discussions of Interpersonal\/Relational psychoanalysis; developmental approaches to the unconscious, including Kohut, Winnicott, and Fonagy; Kleinian approaches to the unconscious; and linguistic theories of the unconscious including Matte Blanco and Lacan. The last chapter illustrates the use of contemporary psychoanalytic concepts in the clinical work with a contemporary patient. The book encourages a comparative view of psychoanalytic theory and technique and aims to move to a more useful, generalizable concept of the unconscious for the contemporary patient. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of great interest to psychoanalysts, psychologists, and anyone interested in the evolution and application of the unconscious as a concept. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57308127854974,"sku":"NW9780367525170","price":28.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9780367525170.jpg?v=1778578172","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/unconscious","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
