Metapsychology and the Foundations of Psychoanalysis: Attachment, neuropsychoanalysis and integration

Metapsychology and the Foundations of Psychoanalysis by Simon Boag is a groundbreaking book that offers a comprehensive and coherent theoretical basis for psychodynamic theory.

This book redresses faults in Freud's original conception and provides a foundation for evaluating and integrating various psychodynamic perspectives.

By developing a philosophically-informed position, Boag demonstrates how unconscious mental processes, wish-fulfillment, fantasy, and repression can be understood in a new light.

This book is essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, philosophers of mind, and psychologists, as well as anyone interested in neuropsychoanalysis or psychoanalysis and attachment theory.

With its focus on the major concepts in psychoanalysis and its ability to integrate various approaches, this book is a must-read for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the field.
