Description
This is an invaluable, informative and thought-provoking addition to the library of Analytical Psychology. Lambert describes here in great detail and with plentiful case material – yet without obscuring the general patterns – the process of analysis and its relation to Jung’s concept of individuation. For those who have been curious to know what the actual work and procedure of Jungian Analysts in London might be, he opens a window into their consulting rooms. His capacity to explore, to analyse and to put into words the complex interactions between analyst and analysand is likely to strike his own colleagues as wise and very helpful.
Lambert has woven a most impressive tapestry, showing a deep grasp of the clinical concepts developed in the Freudian Kleinian and Jungian schools of thought.
