Freud's discovery of the unconscious a century ago, and his proposalof how to work with it, faces substantial critical review in the context of mental health care in the next millennium. Martin Stanton reviews the clinical contribution of psychoanalysis to the treatment of mental disorder, and suggests that the future of psychoanalytic work lies in researching the complexity of unconscious process, particularly its "out-of-orderness"- its intrusion in the set narratives that supposedly construct the "meaning" of life.
