Book Description<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exciting and original collection explores Antonino Ferro\u2019s post-Bionian Field Theory, expanding upon the analytic work of Wilfred Bion to focus on the intersubjective development of psychic regulatory processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Written by members of the Boston Group for Psychoanalytic Studies who have maintained a close and fruitful collaboration with Ferro and his colleagues, the book centers on understanding, engaging and treating primitive mental states. Ferro’s Field Theory operationalizes Bion\u2019s concept of an analyst who is not the repository of \u2018the truth\u2019, but is instead one who has the capacity to listen, to dwell in doubt, to utilize reverie, humor and play, and facilitate the transformation of previously unthinkable aspects of the patient\u2019s experience into articulatable mental elements such as pictorial images, thoughts and dreams. Ferro\u2019s contributions and their analysis are especially relevant to working with primitive character disorders, the difficulties of which lie beyond neurosis and the comfortable reach of the precepts of classical analytic technique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each chapter features detailed clinical examples that explicate and apply post-Bionian Field Theory, making this book an interesting and useful read for analysts and analytic therapists of all orientations, who work with patients in all diagnostic categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reviews<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Howard Levine and his Boston Group were among the first outside of Italy to become interested in the study of post-Bionian Field Theory. Marked by innovative theoretical elaborations and abundant clinical examples, this book is an important testimony to their many fruitful exchanges with Antonino Ferro and the Pavia School. I warmly recommend it to psychotherapists and psychoanalysts at all levels, who are in search of new and versatile working tools to devote to the treatment of psychic suffering.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Giuseppe Civitarese, author of <\/em>Sublime Subjects: Aesthetic Experience and Intersubjectivity in Psychoanalysis (Routledge)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘Ferro\u2019s integration of Baranger\u2019s Field Theory, Bion\u2019s theory of transformations and his own concept of co-narratives has had a profound effect on psychoanalysis worldwide. This book shows experienced analysts at work offering readers a clear history, conceptual description, elaboration and clinical application of Ferro\u2019s seminal ideas, as it plunges us into zones that are the core of our analytic interactions and psychic life. Levine and the other authors\u2019 success in integrating fundamental European, American and South American concepts in their approach makes this book truly unique.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n
