The Critical Dictionary of Psychoanalysis, summarizing many years of theoretical research and the author's practical experience, was first published in 1968 and immediately attracted the attention of colleagues and received well-deserved recognition from the scientific and medical community. This is explained by the fact that the author not only clearly and precisely defined the basic concepts of psychoanalysis but also for the first time showed what substantive differences are brought into the use or interpretation of specific terms by various schools of psychoanalysis, simultaneously revealing both the contradictions between them and what unites them.
On the pages of this book, Freud and Klein, Jung and Federn, Adler, Jones, Winnicott, and many other founders and bright representatives of psychoanalytic theory and practice meet again. Their discussions, emotional disputes, and irreconcilable disagreements, sometimes fundamental, and in some cases exclusively personal in nature, come to life again.
The interested reader has the pleasant opportunity to see and truly feel that ideas, traveling through time and cultural space, have an independent life, sometimes independent of their authors, which was explored with high intellectual elegance and subtle English humor by Charles Rycroft.
