This book deals with processes of interchange) between intra-psychic and external reality. Sometimes the psychoanalytic process is hampered by difficulties distinguishing the intra-psychic and the external reality both in the patient and in the psychoanalyst. The authors highlight the question if this distortion can be seen, to a certain extent, as being part of the analytic process. The analytic encounter is based on submersions in these both realities as well as the space in between, providing access to ongoing new and unknown experiences.Internal reality, external Reality and the spaces in-between: whether it be through their experiences in the clinic, the arts, in religion or neuroscience, it seems as though all the authors share the opinion, that the intimate emotional relationship to another person - such as it occurs in a psychoanalytic session - offers an access to both of these areas of reality.
