    In a radically powerful interpretation of the human condition, this book redefines the discipline of psychoanalysis by examining its fundamental assumptions about the unconscious mind, the nature of personal history, our sexualities, and the significance of the "Oedipus Complex".

  • Maps of Meaningby Jordan B. Peterson

    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 88.95

    Why have people from different cultures and eras formulated myths and stories with similar structures? What does this similarity tell us about the mind, morality, and structure of the world itself? Jordan Peterson offers a provocative new hypothesis that explores the connection between what modern neuropsychology tells us about the brain and what rituals,... more...

  • Does the Woman Exist?by Paul Verhaeghe; Marc Du Ry

    Other Press 2013; US$ 16.99

  • Shrinkby Lawrence R. Samuel

    UNP - Nebraska 2013; US$ 34.95

    ?Psychology has stepped down from the university chair into the marketplace? was how the New York Times put it in 1926. Another commentator in 1929 was more biting. Psychoanalysis, he said, had over a generation, ?converted the human scene into a neurotic.? Freud first used the word around 1895, and by the 1920s psychoanalysis was a phenomenon to... more...

Yet thanks to Lacan's early presentation of the father as real,... more...
