Toward a Theory of Psychoanalytic Treatment

By: Arnold H. Modell

Nearly a century has passed since Freud's theories unleashed a revolution in our understanding of the human psyche. Yet, as Arnold Modell firmly points out, we still do not possess a theory that explains how psychoanalysis works. Other Times, Other Realities provides brilliant insight into this perplexing problem and lays the foundation for a comprehensive theory of psychoanalytic treatment. Modell's careful consideration of Freudian theory, the interpretations of contemporary ego psychology, and the contribution of object theory discloses the changing significance of the fundamental elements of the therapeutic process. In Other Times, Other Realities, readers will discover an illuminating synthesis of concepts underlying the various interpretations of the psychoanalytic process.

The Private Self

By: Arnold H. Modell

The concept of the self is the subject of intense debate in psychoanalysis - as it is in neuro-science, cognitive science, and philosophy. In The Private Self Arnold Modell, a leading thinker in American psychoanalysis, studies selfhood from the inside by examining variations on the theme of the self in Freud and in the work of object relations theorists, self psychologists, and neuro-scientists. His significant contribution is an interdisciplinary perspective in formulating a theory of the private self. Modell contends that the self is fundamentally paradoxical in that it is both dependent and autonomous - dependent upon social affirmation, but autonomous in generating itself from within: we create ourselves by selecting values that are endowed with private meanings. (Modell presents an extensive view of these self-generative and self-creative aspects.) The private self is an embodied self: the psychology of the self is rooted in biology. By thinking of the unconscious as a neurophysiological process and the self as the subject and object of its own experience, Modell is able to explain how identity can persist in the flux of consciousness. In arriving at his unique synthesis of psychoanalytic observations and neurobiological theory, Modell draws on the contributions of Donald Winnicott in psychoanalysis, William James in philosophy, and Gerald Edelman in neurobiology. The Private Self boldly explores the frontier between psychoanalysis and biology. In replacing the "instinct-driven" self and the "attachment-oriented" self with the "self-generating" self, the author offers an exciting and original perspective for our understanding of the mind and the brain.

The Selected Papers of Arnold Goldberg, MD

Forward and with Introductions by Gavin Mullen, PsyD

By: Arnold Goldberg

Many people lead multi faceted lives. Arnold Goldberg is one of these. He is a psychiatrist, a psychoanalyst, a teacher, a supervisor, an editor, and an author. He was Director of the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis, editor of the journal Progress in Self Psychology and is famous for having begun his career as Heinz Kohut's most original student and later his closest colleague. After Kohut died Goldberg finished How Does Analysis Cure? His writings are incredibly wide ranging, his interest in all things psychoanalytic breathtaking as the selections in this book testify. I especially love his work on Behavior Disorders not simply because I was fortunate enough to write for the Case Book he edited on the subject, but because his ideas changed forever my thinking on acting out patients and transformed my clinical results with them. Kohut may have originated the idea of the vertical split in self psychology, but Goldberg has taken the idea to places no other self psychologist has gone.
