  • - A New Dimension in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice
    af Calvin A. Colarusso & Robert A. Nemiroff
    1.444,95 kr.

    This volume is about the normal development of adulthood, as weIl as its vieissitudes and the contributions of such development to psycho­ pathology. The authors are psychoanalysts of great dinieal skill and perceptiveness, but while their focus is consistently a psychodynamie one, their conceptualizations about adult developmental processes are applicable to virtually all kinds of therapy. It is extraordinary how little attention has been paid to the effects of adult developmental experience on mental development. Obviously mental structures are not statie after the profound experiences of child­ hood and adolescence, nor are they merely a template upon whieh adult experiences are processed. The authors dearly demonstrate that current adult experience always adds to, and interacts with, existing mental structure, whieh is itself the result of all preceding develop­ ment. After a first section in whieh they examine life cyde ideas on de­ velopment from antiquity to the present, they present their own work as it relates to adult experience and adult development. Their hypoth­ eses about the psychodynamie theory of adult development are partie­ ularly creative and an enormous contribution to the psychiatrie litera­ ture and the dinical understanding of patients. Consistent with their views that development in adulthood is an ongoing and dynamic process, they elaborate their ideas that childhood development is fo­ cused primarily on the formation of psychie structure while adult de­ velopment is concerned with the continued evolution of existing struc­ ture and its use.

    The psychiatric view of homosexuality has undergone a fascinating evo­ lution in recent years. This includes not only the change from viewing homosexuality as a diagnosable illness, as opposed to an alternative life style, but also the development of considerable professional concern for providing appropriate mental health services to this previously under­ served minority community. There has been an increasing recognition of the need for comprehensive services including, but not limited to, counseling, individual psychotherapy, and couples therapy. This book is written for the practicing clinician, and offers a compre­ hensive survey of the important clinical issues involved in the counsel­ ing and psychotherapy of gay men and lesbian women. It is an extraor­ dinarily practical book and its breadth and depth make it appropriate for both the novice and the experienced therapist. SHERWYN M. WOODS Series Editor ix Preface We hear our mentors but do not often heed them. Freud's supportive, nonjudgmental approach to homosexuality provided an ambience with­ in which discoveries could be made, that is, the discovery that homosex­ uality was not a disease of mental degeneration and that sexuality, in the sense of a fundamental human propensity to find pleasure in social and physical attachments, was at its root directed to both sexes. The ad­ herence to a nonjudgmental approach was short-lived, suffered repres­ sion by homophobic defenses, and scientific zeal was directed toward "cure" rather than comprehension of the homosexual state.

    This multiauthored textbook is directed to the psychiatric resident and other professionals who are interested in the issues, strategies, and methods of psychiatric research. Although the field of psychiatry has not attained the scientific rigor and clinical sophistication of some of its sister disciplines in the medical arena, considerable progress has been made in the last decade or two, and a full understanding of the types of articles that now appear in such publications as the American Journal of Psychiatry, the Archives of General Psychi­ atry, and the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry requires a fair amount of knowledge about research design and strategy. Whereas articles in psychiatric journals 20 years ago dealt mainly with psycho­ dynamic topics and utilized nonexperimental observations, today their counter­ parts are concerned mostly with psychobiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment, and employ scientific experimental designs. The trend of applying scientific methodology to research in psychiatry is increasing and undoubtedly will continue to do so in the future.
