'Thanks to this magnificent, in-depth study of one of Lacan's most infamous contributions to psychoanalysis, students and Lacanian scholars will finally be relieved of a major headache. With extraordinary patience and an unfailing commitment to clarity, Alfredo Eidelsztein introduces and explains the "graph of desire" as if he himself had been privy to its production process, leaving no conceptual stone unturned and demonstrating its functionality with numerous clinical examples. Anyone wanting to access Lacan's graph without taking a shortcut needs to have a copy of this invaluable book.'
