Reviews

This book is a textually faithful, painstaking exposition of Lacan's seminal ecrits `The Freudian Thing, or the Meaning of the Return to Freud in Psychoanalysis' ... . The book is stimulating and enlightening (and, importantly, clear) reading for both the uninitiated and initiated alike. (Gregory Trotter, Continental Philosophy Review, Vol. 51, 2018)
