Psychoanalysis or Mind and Meaning

of these zones is characterized by an unconscious domain (‘repressed sexual unconscious’, traumatic unconscious, etc) which the analyst must take into account. Taking up the idea expressed by Freud in 1923, according to which ‘individual psychology is also a social psychology’, Jean-Claude Rolland writes with regard to ‘borderline or psychotic cases’: ‘‘The subjective organisation revealed by these tragic situations, like the analytic situation it engenders, is more akin to group psychoanalysis than to individual psychoanalysis’’ (p. 902). These treatments require us ‘‘to modify the narcissistic and libidinal rapport we have with our theory’’ (p. 903). The analysts who were invited to put forward their ideas in this book show how they try to resolve, at theoretical and practical levels, the challenge posed by the treatment of non-neurotic cases, and also how they attempt to create the optimal conditions for psychic work to take place. It is clear how the analyst’s work has become increasingly complex. Thought is given to the metapsychology of the analyst’s mental functioning during the session and thus to a re-elaboration of the concept of countertransference. In the space of this review, I have not been able to show sufficiently the extent to which the clinical cases cited are explicit and participate in the theoretical developments proposed. This book, which is at the forefront of contemporary psychoanalysis, constitutes an exceptional working tool for those who wish to keep abreast of metapsychological and clinical advances. And finally, to repeat Andr Green’s own words, this book offers a thorough and ‘‘in-depth renewal of the discussion’’ on technical, clinical and theoretical problems. More than interesting, this book is fascinating!
