Reviews

Rarely has a book dealt with the psychodynamics and analytic treatment of psychotic patients with the breadth and scholarship of this comprehensive volume. I enthusiastically recommend this wonderful book. -Lawrence J. Brown, IPA Psychoanalyst, Boston, USA; author of Transformational Processes in Clinical Psychoanalysis: Dreaming, Emotions, and the Present Moment (Routledge, 2019) The psychoanalytic research on unrepresented (psycho-somatic, autistic or autistoid etc) and psychotic states has an increasingly and important impact of the current psychoanalysis. Reading this book is a touching experience, discovering how psychotic patients can be open to psychoanalysis, so that holding and containing processes can occur. -Bernd Nissen, IPA Training and Supervising Analyst, Editor of Jahrbuch der Psychoanalyse, Berlin, Germany
