In a brilliant examination of the frontiers of human emotion and cognition, four prominent psychoanalysts combine the perspectives of developmental psychology, attachment theory, and psychoanalytic technique. The result of this marriage of disciplines is an ultimately encouraging vision for psychoanalytic treatment.
Historically, human emotion has been marginalized within the philosophy of the mind. Fonagy, Gergely, Jurist, and Target argue instead for the importance of attachment and emotionality in the developing consciousness, employing an extensive body of recent literature to support their claims. They explore and refine the concepts of mentalization and affect regulation, then present case studies that illustrate the lasting detriment resulting from environments that do not foster mentalization and affect regulation.
But Affect Regulation, Mentalization, and the Development of the Self does not leave us in despair of a potential solution to this developmental obstacle; rather, the authors offer models of psychoanalytic practice that can enable the gradual acquisition of mentalizing skills over time, even in patients with long histories of violence and neglect. The book demonstrates that an analyst can, through an active and supportive therapeutic stance, influence a patient to develop the self-reflective capabilities so necessary to navigating the emotional, cognitive, and profound social world in which we live.
