Psychoanalysts in Session: Clinical Glossary of Contemporary Psychoanalysis

Editor : Laurent Danon-Boileau, Editor : Jean-Yves Tamet

Reviews and Endorsements

"This is an innovative, interesting and creative way of exploring key psychoanalytic concepts. This most significant book offers a number of short presentations from prestigious analysts who explore and illustrate fundamental psychoanalytic concepts from a contemporary perspective. Clinical examples illustrate the different theoretical approaches that the authors follow, how they think and practise. Rooted on Freudian thinking, the reader will encounter different perspectives on concepts such as the presence of the analyst, transference, listening and interpretation, figures and forms, the frame and setting, the role of the drives, of trauma, sexualities and otherness among many other fundamental concepts. This book will be of great value to both psychoanalysts and to a wider interested readership alike." - Catalina Bronstein, Training and Supervising Analyst of the British Psychoanalytical Society and Visiting Professor in the Psychoanalysis Unit at University College London.

"This is a great profoundly psychoanalytic contribution. Parsimonious, deep, insightful and introducing me to lots of things I half-knew or hadn't thought about. Good to keep by and browse at random. Will repay hours of attention." - David Tuckett, formerly president of the European Psychoanalytic Federation, Editor-in-Chief of the International Psychoanalytic Journal and a Professor at UCL and Training and Supervising Analyst in London.
