Muriel Dimen Knihy

A century after it was written, Breuer and Freudís Studies on Hysteria continues to challenge. In Storms in Her Head , many of todayís most renowned psychoanalysts and cultural theorists revisit the cases it contains, reflecting on how six suffering women continue to engage us with problems of theory and practice. Each author offers a major contribution to current psychoanalytic thinking about culture and its influence on the mind, the body and clinical process. Storms in Her Head offers an eclectic and lively set of opinions on Freud, his hysterical patients, and the psychoanalytic journey they began together.

Exploring psychosexuality through a unique lens, the book integrates relational theory, feminism, and postmodernism. It features a new foreword by Virginia Goldner and Velleda Ceccoli, which pays tribute to Muriel Dimen and highlights her significant contributions to the field. This work aims to introduce Dimen's impactful ideas to a contemporary audience, emphasizing her lasting influence on the understanding of human relationships and sexuality.
