Reviews

This is a very accomplished piece, which manages to stay focused and offer an important contribution to matters of ‘evidence’, ‘truth’ and what that means epistemologically and politically. The work is inviting, fluid, well-written and helpful to many scholars of related fields. - Ana Minozzo, University of Essex This manuscript offers a very relevant contribution to the field of psychoanalysis, in its articulation with the philosophy of science. The author's originality lies in the way he conducts a debate between the philosophy of science and psychoanalysis, or more specifically, a debate between Hacking and Lacan, from which we can draw epistemological, ethical and political consequences, which at the same time allows to stabilise theoretical parameters and to support clinical and therapeutic practices. - Aline Sanches, Universidade Estadual de Maringá
