This book is part of the field of interpersonal perspective in psychoanalysis, which he argues that there are no isolated minds but only subjectivities in dialogue and interactions between them. Thus, psychological phenomena can be understood (and healing disturbances) only if one considers the "intersubjective contexts", relations between people. From this perspective, one of the most modern and most followed by the contemporary psychoanalytic thinking, the authors reconsider the fundamental arguments of classical psychoanalysis as unconscious processes, the traumatic origin of psychopathology or the role of fantasy or daydreams.
In the second part of the book includes several case reports with detailed comments that illustrate the focus of psychotherapeutic work.
Of interest to psychologists, psychology students interested in relational psychology, psychotherapists.
