Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Robert Langs has long been one of the most individual and controversial psychoanalytic theorists. In this book, he concentrates on one of the most prominent areas of his thought: his insistence upon adherence to strict rules for boundaries (or "frames") in psychotherapy and psychoanalysis.St…arting from the statement that "Throughout the history of the universe, frames, contexts, rules, and boundaries have been vital aspects of the development and very existence of both physical structures and living organisms," Langs goes on to examine the profile of the issues of boundaries in psychoanalytic thought. He discusses Freud's technique papers on the subject, and goes on to elucidate his own approach, rooted in his thinking on evolutionary and adaptive processes which he has discussed in his previous work. Throughout the book, Langs gives both theoretical discussions and practical groundings of his ideas. As with his previous book, Doing Supervision and Being Supervised (1994), Robert Langs here brings his unique energy and viewpoint to bear on an important but little-examined topic. The author examines the issue of boundaries in psychoanalytic thought, with reference to Freud's papers on analytic technique. The author then elucidates his own approach, drawing upon his previous research into evolutionary and adaptive processes. Throughout the book, Langs shows how theoretical ideas can be grounded in clinical practice. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
