Reflections on Group Analysis and Psychoanalysis brings together a selection of works, including several previously unpublished and available for the first time, from the three main areas of work in Malcolm Pines' career: Group Analysis, Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience. The chapters span some sixty years of his career and chart his immersion in primary training and work as a British psychoanalyst.
Pines remains one of the most pivotal and important individuals in group analysis and therapy. In this book, he aims to show how Group Analytic theory is a nodal point in the network of Psychodynamic development, encompassing developmental psychology, neuroscience, ethology, social sciences and linguistics. Reflections on Group Analysis and Psychoanalysis: The Selected Works of Malcom Pines will be essential reading for students and practitioners of group analysis and therapy, psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
