Among the paradoxes examined in this book are the nature of longing (the object's presence in its absence), the wholeness of the broken heart (the subject's existence in relation to the lack that defines her or him), drives (the more you feed it, the hungrier it gets) and the pangs of conscience (the righteous suffer). Israely's innovative approach considers several questions which can be used to orient treatment and focuses on shedding the erroneous beliefs and assumptions that can lead to dead ends. \u003ci\u003eParadoxes in Lacanian Psychoanalysis \u003c\/i\u003ealso explores those paradoxes - involving anxiety, perplexity, wonder and creativity - that cannot and are not meant to be resolved.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis fascinating book will be essential reading for Lacanian psychoanalysts in practice and in training, and for psychoanalysts and psychotherapists of other theoretical backgrounds who are interested in understanding the nature of paradoxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYehuda Israely\u003c\/strong\u003e is a clinical psychologist, psychoanalyst and author based in Israel.
