This thoroughly updated second edition of a highly regarded introduction to psychoanalysis retains the clarity and accessibility of its predecessor, making it invaluable for teachers and students. It offers a user-friendly overview of psychoanalysis, addressing its basic concepts, historical development, critiques, and research base. The authors, all practicing psychoanalysts, illustrate the far-reaching influence of psychoanalysis beyond the consulting room and explore its relationship with other psychological theories. The text is enriched with numerous clinical examples. New features in this edition include discussions on parent-infant psychotherapy and mentalization-based therapy (MBT), an examination of psychotherapy within the NHS and the IAPT program, and a deeper look into the debate between CBT and analytic approaches. Additionally, it expands on dreaming and attachment theory with more examples, presents new research studies, and introduces the emerging field of psychosocial studies. This practical guide serves as an ideal entry point for new trainees and offers insights into the training process and professional structure for those considering a career in psychoanalysis.
