von Paul Cammell

288 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Reinterpreting the Borderline is a unique, timely, and comprehensive analysis of Heidegger’s philosophy and its relevance to the clinical fields of psychiatry, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis. By applying these philosophical ideas to developmental models and clinical treatments of borderline personality disorder, Cammell explores the fundamentally relational, embodied, affective, temporal, and technical aspects of existence that become problematized in the experience of "the borderline"--both for the suffering individual and the concerned clinician. Reinterpreting the Borderline provides a rich and complex study toward simultaneously overcoming the divide between theory and practice, philosophy and psychotherapy, and finally the borderline between suffering individuals and their concerned clinicians.
