In the EFPP Monograph Series
Families in Transformation is a collection of essays by eminent scholars on
the psychoanalysis of couples and families and provides a wide ranging
and articulated picture of the current situation in Europe. The reader will
find various psychoanalytical models applied in it: from object relations
theory to group analysis to the theory of links, encountering the lively and rich French, Italian, and British schools
at work in different settings.
Themes range from myths to secrets, to incest and the brotherly dimension of families; from adoptive families to
the conflicts over separation, in addition to papers discussing perverse and violent couples.The book shows how
it is possible to put together an understanding of the individual’s internal world with the interpersonal dynamics
of families, their bonds and relations, expressed in somatic and active terms at the inter- and trans-generational
level.
‘This brilliant book has long been awaited in the psychoanalytic community. It details in an exhaustive way the
state of the art in the field of psychoanalytic family therapy, and describes the current approaches to theory and
clinical work in couples and families, as well as the different shades of meaning developed by the most prominent
contemporary authors writing on this subject. This work is not only for family therapists, but also addresses the
entire psychoanalytic community. Gone are the times when it was commonplace to say that family therapy was
opposed to individual therapy. Now such opposition has been overcome in favour of synergy, and this book
convincingly shows how this shift has taken place. The authors have drawn in a creative way from different areas
of knowledge, reaping a wealth of theories, perspectives, and clinical evidence that will enrich all therapists.’
— Antonino Ferro, President of the Italian Psychoanalytical Society (SPI) and member of the American
Psychoanalytic Association
