Spelled out in terms of interdependent components, namely: aim, technique and theoretical premises, the author takes the reader through Freud's oeuvre so that he emerges as a relentless, theoretically grounded practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrances Moran argues that the nub of the Freudian inheritance is the concept of human subjectivity. In the light of this finding and her reading of Freud, she presents the work of Paul Verhaeghe (\u003cem\u003eOn Being Normal and Other Disorders\u003c\/em\u003e) anew and calls on Marie Cardinal (\u003cem\u003eThe Words to Say It\u003c\/em\u003e) to provide telling evidence of what it means to be a Freudian subject.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGiven the objectifying processes at work in contemporary culture, the relevance of Freud for our times becomes compelling. Here practitioners will find a clearly presented framework within which to operate and a way of organising the material that informs their clinical pursuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe exploration of an underpinning structure to the \u003cem\u003eComplete Works\u003c\/em\u003e will be of the utmost assistance to those who wish to embark upon a search for knowledge of the human condition through the highways and byways of the legacy of Sigmund Freud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47608121098476,"sku":"9781855757257","price":84.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/84b141b52f7097b757eebeac5e8a49dd.jpg?v=1778185444","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-paradoxical-legacy-of-sigmund-freud-by-frances-moran-9781855757257","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
