A forceful advocacy of a psychoanalysis that is social not individualistic in its view of human life, The Good Society and the Inner World surveys the implications of recent psychoanalytical work for political and cultural thought.
This wide-ranging and accessible book will be of use to both the analytic profession and to all those who wish to examine the politics and culture of psychoanalysis.
