Recenzii
Ver Eecke (Georgetown Univ.) presents an analysis of schizophrenia that places talk therapy at its center, exploring this intervention's possibilities for enhancing the lives of people who suffer from schizophrenia and those-professionals and family members-who care for them. For Ver Eecke, mental illness is framed in terms of the linguistic challenges that, failing to have been mastered while growing up, account for psychosis and schizophrenia. Through his use of Lacanian psychoanalysis, its points of resemblance to Hegelian philosophy, and the phenomenology of De Waelhens, Ver Eecke lays the groundwork for demonstrations of how schizophrenia may be approached therapeutically. The book concludes by describing three methods for treating schizophrenic patients and offers a reframing of them in terms of the Lacanian ideas discussed earlier in the book. In short, this is a magisterial account of the treatment of schizophrenia, a notoriously intractable condition, and it will have immense appeal to professionals in psychoanalysis, psychology, and social work. The included clinical examples provide fertile material for future conversations about approaches to treatment. Especially illuminating in this regard is Ver Eecke's reflections on the obligatory example of Judge Daniel Paul Schreber, the most famous case of psychosis in the analytic and psychological literature.
Summing Up: Highly recommended. Advanced undergraduates through faculty and professionals.
This is a very impressive work by Wilfied Ver Eecke, bringing together important studies that witness to the worth of a philosophical approach to psychosis and schizophrenia. Ver Eecke is an honored expert on Lacan and a respected interpreter of Hegel and the relevance of his thought to the psychoanalytic situation. Mental illness is seen in developmental terms and not just in terms of genetic or organic factors. We are offered a positive and hopeful orientation to the power of the word in alleviating the distress of the patient. With a significant stress on language, he makes a deft use of Hegel to provide added heft to the themes. The results are very engaging and illuminating, and the voice of Ver Eecke is not only superbly competent in an academic sense but wise in a humane sense.
Renowned Lacanian psychoanalyst Wilfried Ver Eecke brings together for the first time a collection of his seminal contributions to the talk psychotherapy of schizophrenic patients. Building on the successful treatment methods of psychologists Karon, Vergote, Villemoes, and Prouty, Ver Eecke provides a therapeutic blueprint that offers hope to patients and their families. This book will prove to be an invaluable guide for all mental health clinicians who wish to obtain the best possible outcomes for their patients who suffer and struggle with schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders.
Lacan's insights into schizophrenia were continually reworked and developed throughout his many years of teaching. This book revisits the core of Lacan's formidable approach to treating schizophrenia by linking Lacan's thought to a wider field of psychoanalytic approaches and methodologies. Ver Eecke also brings his many years of Hegel scholarship and experience as a Lacanian psychoanalyst to bear on the challenge of treating schizophrenia. This book is a treasure for analysts, philosophers, and those in the wider field of mental health.
Ver Eecke has produced a highly sophisticated study of clinical approaches to psychosis and schizophrenia that is informed by Lacanian ideas and a range of related philosophical and post-Lacanian approaches. It is very readable and covers complex ideas well, carefully balancing the conceptualizations of a range of theorists along with the author's own novel ideas. Very accessible and understandable clinical examples bring the discussions alive and make the arguments seem applicable to real-world clinical work, which is one of the successes of the book, especially given that this is often a challenge for Lacanian theorists.
Wilfried Ver Eecke is a gifted Lacanian psychoanalyst and first-rate describer of psychoanalytic theories.In this book, he describes effective treatments for schizophrenia. . He also offers real hope to patients suffering from serious mental disorders, who usually have been told they are hopeless. This book will help them know that it is not true.
Wilfred Ver Eecke's Breaking through Schizophrenia offers an insightful and thought-provoking analysis of the complexities of schizophrenia, proving to be an acceptable read for experts and nonexperts alike in the field of psychoanalysis.. Ver Eecke's uncanny ability to incorporate difficult philosophic and linguistic concepts into his inquiry of schizophrenia makes this book an important read for anyone studying mental illnesses.. Thus, the book proves to be a must-read for psychoanalysts, those studying talk therapy, and anyone impacted by psychosis - whether directly or indirectly - for it dismantles stigma surrounding the issue and delivers an extensive assay of schizophrenia.
This is an excellent book for anyone interested in Lacan and philosophy, or for those who wish to explore literature on the treatment of psychosis in the clinic. The language is clear and engaging without being generic. Highly recommended.
The image of psychoanalysis that Ver Eecke illustrates in Breaking through Schizophrenia should pique the curiosity of readers across the Humanities and Social Sciences more broadly.. By probing, analyzing, and reinvigorating the grounds of Lacan's foundation, Ver Eecke's Breaking Through Schizophrenia effectively demonstrates a way in which psychoanalysis can challenge the obstacles 21st century social and political institutions pose for psychic development.
