In The Science and Clinical Practice of Neuropsychoanalysis, K. Jayasankara Reddy integrates contemporary findings from neuroscience with key psychoanalytic theories, providing readers with a comprehensive perspective on human behaviour.
Reddy explores essential themes in neuropsychoanalysis, including memory, emotion, trauma and self-identity. Throughout the book, he examines how these insights can help clinical practice, offering specific instances of how a neuropsychoanalytic approach can improve treatment methods for psychopathologies such as depression, anxiety and personality disorders. Reddy incudes case studies and deep theoretical analysis to share profound insights into the unconscious mind. Employing a balanced methodology that blends the rigor of neuroscience and the profundity of psychoanalysis, The Science and Clinical Practice of Neuropsychoanalysis is a seminal work for comprehending the brain and the unconscious mind concurrently.
This book is an essential resource for psychoanalysts and other mental health practitioners, as well as researchers interested in the intricate workings of the human psyche.
