'I very much enjoyed the first edition of For and Against Psychoanalysis. This new, updated edition is even more enjoyable. It is immensely readable because of the frankness, wit, verve, and seriousness with which Stephen Frosh details the fascinations and frustrations of the continuing ramifications of Freud's discovery of unconscious fantasy. The result is a book which is both an exciting introduction to the current philosophical, clinical, and social impact of Freudian and post-Freudian psychoanalysis, and also a very welcome and refreshing reminder to its teachers and practitioners of its problems and potential.' - Janet Sayers, Professor of Psychoanalytic Psychology, University of Kent, Canterbury
'The in-your-face title masks the most subtle, nuanced and balanced discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of psychoanalysis as treatment, theoretical perspective and social influence. Frosh admits to his biases and enthusiasms and wears his learning lightly. Hence the second edition of this much-admired book will be of continuing use to students and trainees as well as to faculty and qualified psychotherapists and counsellors.' - Andrew Samuels, Professor of Analytical Psychology, University of Essex
In this second edition of For And Against Psychoanalysis, Stephen Frosh has scrupulously reworked the earlier text. The second edition retains the remarkable breadth and scope of the original, while expanding and updating Froshs overview to include additional subject areas, such as ways in which psychoanalysis has contributed to the examination of social issues. Bruce Reis, Psychologist-Psychoanalyst, Fall 2007
