Rescuing Psychoanalysis from Freud and Other Essays in Re-Vision: And Other Essays in Re-Vision (The History of Psychoanalysis Series) - Softcover
Synopsis
In his latest groundbreaking book, the author examines the history of psychoanalysis from a resolutely independent perspective. At once spellbinding case histories and meticulously crafted gems of scholarship, Rudnytsky's essays are "re-visions" in that each sheds fresh light on its subject but they are also avowedly "revisionist" in their scepticism towards all forms of psychoanalytic orthodoxy. Beginning with a judicious reappraisal of Freud and ranging in scope from King Lear to contemporary neuroscience, the author treats in depth the lives and work of Ferenczi, Jung, Stekel, Winnicott, Coltart, and Little, each of whom sought to "rescue psychoanalysis" by summoning it to live up to its highest ideals.

Review
"Peter Rudnytsky is one of the best ― if not the best ― scholars in our field today."
(Rosemary H. Balsam)
"Peter Rudnytsky writes with an incomparable blend of academic erudition, narrative mastery, and passionate engagement. If you are honest enough to regret what psychoanalysis has too often been, but have not lost hope for what it might yet become, you have been looking for this book." (Carlo Bonomi)
"Peter Rudnytsky is one of the best ― if not the best ― scholars in our field today." (Rosemary H. Balsam)
