In The New World of Self, Charles B. Strozier and his coauthors take on the challenge of revisiting Heinz Kohut, the most important and yet underappreciated figure in contemporary psychology and psychoanalysis. Kohut focused on the clinical meanings of psychoanalysis, but equally embraced historical themes, to explain why the best modes of treatment are mutual, open, fluid, flexible, and, of course, most of all based in the deep empathic immersion of the analyst into the feelings, affect, and experience of the patient. Acquainting the work of this eminent psychoanalytic theorist to a new generation of scholars, this book unpacks the transformative research of Heinz Kohut and highlights his significance in the history of psychoanalysis.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
