Reihe: Psychoanalysis in a New Key Book Series

What do therapists not talk about? What do we ignore/miss/sidestep? What factors—personal, social, political—inform our areas of blindness? This book names and explores what psychoanalytic theory often skips over or simplifies—how, when, and why we fail to uphold the professional ideal. 

Turning a critical eye on her own theory, Slochower reflects on how it, she, and the field have evolved and what remains unspoken. In so doing, she pushes us to do the same. 

With its sharp focus on both theory and clinical work, this book is essential reading for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists.
