Recenzii
This book is a must-read for any serious student of self psychology and psychoanalysis. Strozier and his colleagues have penetrated the often obscure and difficult prose of Heinz Kohut to present a clear and compelling text that spells out the essence of self psychology and the implications of it as additional paradigm for understanding human psychology. Kohut located self psychology clearly in the context of both classical psychoanalytic theory and the other schools of psychoanalytic thought. As the biographer of Kohut, Strozier is a singularly qualified guide for this task, and he has executed it masterfully.
Strozier is not only Kohut's biographer but his leading interpreter. He is clearer about Kohut than Kohut. This book by Strozier and his colleagues is essential for any grasp of Kohut's influence and significance for us now.
The New World of Self is a brilliant, indeed decisive, book in the field. The interweaving of clinical material, theory, biographical vignettes, and historical settings is so masterful that it makes the book compellingly readable. I leap for joy that we finally have an excellent secondary text on Kohut's extraordinary transformation of psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, and our whole way of thinking about human life.
This book makes complex theory readily accessible in prose that has the liveliness and originality of good fiction while at the same time placing self psychology's ongoing evolution in historical context. Strozier and his co-authors tell the story of how Kohut's theory transformed psychoanalysis in the 1970s while laying essential groundwork for the contemporary theories that followed. New biographical details add further richness to this special offering.
Freud's extraordinary understanding of mind emerged in a particular culture and stage of knowledge. Adventuring beyond, into the new intellectual territory of uncertainty and complexity, has seen psychoanalytic dead ends and promising paths that petered out. Strozier, who knew Kohut well, has with his colleagues in this essential guidebook, produced a persuasive case for Kohut's insights, but more than that, a valuable intellectual sextant for the next generation of navigators of the human soul.
Strozier, Pinteris, Kelley, and Cher offer a fresh, engaging, and enlightening portrait of Kohut as the psychoanalyst who introduced empathy into psychoanalytic theory and practice. Kohut conceived of trauma, healing, and the development of the self in profoundly humane terms. Through its clarity of language, use of clinical and historical interviews, and organization of themes, The New World of Self offers psychotherapists of all persuasions and scholars interested in studying talk therapy practical and thought-provoking access to Kohut's transformative contributions.
I greatly admire this new book on the work of Heinz Kohut by Strozier and his colleagues. It will become the basic text on self psychology in any curriculum. The open and courageous voice of The New World of Self captures the deepest meaning of Kohut's monumental contribution to psychoanalysis.
The New World of Self is a remarkable work that reads like a series of master classes on the essentials of what has come to be known as self psychology, founded by the grandmaster himself, Heinz Kohut. Charles Strozier and coauthors, provide a fascinating overview of the evolution of Kohut's transformative understanding of the self. After laying this groundwork, each consecutive chapter offers a captivating in-depth exploration of the vicissitudes of empathy, transference, dreams, sexuality, rage, and therapeutic process. Strozier and colleagues have brought Kohut's work into a truly modern-day context, making it accessible for therapists of many different disciplines and a treasured guide for any ardent practitioner of psychotherapy.
Finally, I only wish to add that this coauthored book is a rigurous and nuanced look back to Heinz Kohut, a highy-talented contemporary analyst, whose psychoanalytic theorization and associated clinical praxis relies strongly upon the importance of empathy and mutuality in the clinical encounter. For that reason, I foster to potential experts, historians, and lay people interested in Kohut to see through this book the complexity of human existence and how efface the living problems in the patient-analyst relationship.
This tour de force by Charles Strozier, Konstantine Pinteris, Kathleen Kelley and Deborah Cher is an excellent resource for all students at any level of their understanding of self psychology and I believe will have an enduring legacy as a teaching resource for instructors of self psychology.
