Summary:

Advocates and critics share their views about the postmodern turn in psychoanalysis in this book of intriguing dialogue. Matters of culture, gender, neurobiology, self-states, and the profound complexities of relationships that have riveted the attention of theorists and practitioners are explored, and new models of treatment and additional theories of pathogenesis that have emerged are examined. The contributors advocate, critique, or simply observe postmodern psychoanalysis and show how its antecedents can be found in a wide range of authors from Ferenczi to Sullivan who disdain reductionism, reject the concept of neutrality, and support a two-person psychology.
