Progress in Self Psychology, V. 11: The Impact of New Ideas (Progress in Self Psychology, 11)

Volume 11 begins with a timely assessment of self psychology and intersubjectivity theory, with original contributions by Carveth, Trop, and Powell, and a critical commentary by P. Ornstein. Clinical studies span the transferences (Lachmann & Kicrsky; Lewinberg); the complementarity of individual and group therapy (Baker); the termination phase (Muslin); and multiple personality disorder (Palef). A special section on "dying and mourning" encompasses women professionals and suicide (Abramowitz); the self psychology of the mourning process (Hagman); and the selfobject function of religious experience with the dying patient (Knoblauch). The volume concludes with theoretical and applied studies of personality testing in analysis (Geller); writer's block (Tuch); "The Guilt of Tragic Man" (Droga & Kaufmann); and the historical significance of self psychology (Kilian). A testimony to the evolutionary growth of self-psychology, The Impact of New Ideas will be warmly welcomed by readers of the Progress in Self Psychology series. Book jacket.
