Contemporary Controversies in Psychoanalytic Theory, Technique, and Their Applications

"In this book, esteemed psychoanalyst Otto F. Kernberg reviews some of the recent developments and controversies in psychoanalytic theory and technique." "Dr. Kernberg examines, for example, the new psychoanalytic views of homosexuality, bisexuality, and the influence of gender in the analytic relationship. He explores the application of psychoanalysis to non-clinical fields, including the problem of psychoanalytic research and its clinical implications, the validation of psychoanalytic interventions in the clinical process, and the challenges of psychoanalytic education. He shows how psychoanalysis can be helpful in addressing such cultural problems as socially sanctioned violence. And he asserts the continued relevance of object relations theory and its compatibility with Freud's dual drive theory. Gathering together both previously published articles and extensive new material, Dr. Kernberg offers an explication of advances that have been made throughout the world in psychoanalytic understanding."--BOOK JACKET.
