Mapping the Mind : The Intersection of Psychoanalysis

By Fred M. Levin

Book Overview

Focusing on experience near clinical concepts such as defense, repression and disavowal, Levin proposes connections between such features of mental life and specific neurophysiological mechanisms. His topical studies converge on a key issue: how human beings learn. Levin also invokes a variety of disciplinary perspectives in order to understand how therapy - and analysis in particular - can create windows for learning that did not previously exist.
