Synopsis:
Numerous clinical examples illustrate the author's approach, which exploits the usefulness of narratological and dialogical considerations. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
From the Back Cover: The manner in which we "narrate" our lives is the central theme of psycho-analytic discourse and a critical issue for all of us, Roy Schafer argues. Narrating, giving an account, presenting a version: these terms make up the core vocabulary of the narrative approach. From this perspective, Schafer offers a new understanding of such diverse issues as men's struggle against sentimentality; women and power; happiness and failure; and analysts' sublimated love for the patients.
