Rezensionen
"This is a powerful book, an intimate book, a sexy book. Throughout, Dimen encourages us to think of the ambiguity and multiplicity of gender, the paradoxical hopefulness and hopelessness of desire, and the abject corporeality of the human condition. Serious and playful, sincere and ironic, pulling together the learned and the commonplace, she manages to guide us through some of the most challenging issues in psychoanalytic thinking today: the persistent presence of the sexual, the ineffability of the unconscious, the ambiguities of lust, the impossibility of desire"

Karol Marshall, PhD. Contemporary Psychoanalysis.

"Sexuality, Intimacy, Power is a remarkable document of recent Western intellectual and political histories. Via psychoanalysis, feminism and social theory, it attempts no less than to make some honest sense of what it is to be a person amongst peiople and how much we can know of such things. It is readable, brave, witty and in places, quite funny. Put simply, you'll struggle through shelves on these subjects to find anything better."

James Taylor, PhD. Psychotherapy and Politics International.

"Muriel Dimen, a prodigious reader and a sparkling writer, takes us on a journey of insight through all the central questions that have plagued and enlivened the conjunction of psychoanalyis and feminism in the last two decades. She has a rare gift for synthesizing a wide range of theoretical issues while balancing awareness of the complexity of clinical practice and the historical, cultural context. This is a book that enlightens, educates, and stimulates, speaking to readers from diverse worlds while illuminating their common, profound concerns."

Jessica Benjamin, PhD. NYU PostDoctorol Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis.

"There is a scintillating populist intelligence to Dimen's thinking, conveyed by a wit and irony that seems deceptively light. For this is a robust and serious work, challenging and wide ranging in its scope: a sexual discourse, intimate and powerful."

Christopher Bollas, PhD., British Psychoanalytical Institute

"Muriel Dimen's book is an open and engaging treatment of psychoanalysis, feminism, and social theory. She offers an excellent overview of the debates, and reinvigorates hope that the tension among these fields will remain productive and alive. She coins new and suprising terms and ideas, and she works deftly to produce conversations among fields where there haven't been enough. Her work as a clinician and as a theorist come together in a humane, subtle, even joyous account of the complexity of gendered life."

Judith Butler, Author. Gender Trouble.
