Clinical Studies in Neuropsychoanalysis Revisited (The Brain Injuries Series)

This book offers a unique perspective on understanding the biological underpinnings of human mental functioning through the lens of psychoanalytic observations.

With a combination of neuropsychology and psychoanalytic knowledge from diverse schools, this book explores how damage to specific areas of the brain can change the mind.

Twenty years after the publication of Clinical Studies in Neuro-Psychoanalysis, this updated edition brings together clinicians and researchers from all over the world to report key developments in the field.

The book presents a rich set of new case studies from a diverse range of brain injuries, neuropsychological impairments, and even degenerative and paediatric pathologies.

This volume will be of immense value to those working with neurological populations that want to incorporate psychoanalytic ideas in case formulations, as well as for those who want to introduce themselves in the neurological basis of psychoanalytic models of the mind and the broader psychoanalytic community.
