Difference and Disavowal: The Trauma of Eros

This book is a major rethinking of a central tenet of Freudian psychoanalysis-the repression theory. It centers on fundamental issues in practice and theory, beginning with a major conundrum for clinical psychoanalysis: how to understand apparently analyzable patients who resist the essential therapeutic measure of analysis-interpretation.
