Kenneth Eisold

The Organizational Life of Psychoanalysis (eBook, ePUB)

Conflicts, Dilemmas, and the Future of the Profession

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Organizational Life of Psychoanalysis is a wide-ranging exploration and examination of the organizational conflicts and dilemmas that have troubled psychoanalysis since its inception. Kenneth Eisold provides a unique, detailed and closely reasoned account of the systems needed to carry out the tasks of training, quality control, community building, relationships with the larger professional community. He explores how the freedom to innovate and explore can be sustained in a context where the culture has insisted on certain standards being set and enforced, standards that have little to do with providing effective pathways to cure.
