Synopsis

Though Barris (philosophy, Marshall U., West Virginia) studied theoretical and clinical psychology before changing fields, he says psychoanalysis is not the focus of this work. Rather, he sets out to demonstrate something about the nature of theory and conceptual thought in general, using psychoanalytic theory as a case study and Wittgensteinian insights as tools.
