Contemporary Psychodynamic Theory and Practice by William Borden

Contemporary Psychodynamic Theory and Practice by William Borden

Contemporary Psychodynamic Theory and Practice introduces the contributions of the key thinkers in the broader psychodynamic tradition, demonstrating the relevance of relational perspectives and recent developments for psychotherapy and psychosocial intervention. William Borden presents the developmental perspectives and clinical approaches of divergent theorists, from Freud, Jung, and Adler to Winnicott and Kohut, and shows how their views enlarge understanding of essential concerns in clinical practice.

This is a splendid bookBorden has provided an excellent, readable, and incisive review of psychoanalytic perspective from Freud's initial statement to present time. Well presented yet scholarly, this is an ideal text for students and others interested in the wide scope of psychoanalysis." - Bertram Cohler, University of Chicago
A remarkably compact but accessible treatment of the great thinkers, great ideas, and great applications to real life." - Book News
