Description
This volume describes how psychoanalysis has evolved from the ego and object-relations psychology and emphasises on the meaning of current relations. Thus a fundamental change of analytical practice took place. Many convictions and beliefs were questioned, modified or had to be given up. Authenticity and controlled openness define today?s meetings. The book describes beginning, chances and dangers of this new orientation. This is done specially keeping in mind contemporary dysfunctions and challenges and finishes discussing the future.
