Sigmund Freud and the classical psychoanalytic tradition -- Ego psychology -- Harry Stack Sullivan and interpersonal psychoanalysis -- Melanie Klein and contemporary Kleinian theory -- The British object relations school : W.

Winnicott -- Psychologies of identity and self : Erik Erikson and Heinz Kohut -- Contemporary Freudian revisionists : Otto Kernberg, Roy Schafer, Hans Loewald, and Jacques Lacan -- Controversies in theory -- Controversies in technique.
Summary: Freud's concepts have become a part of our psychological vocabulary: unconscious thoughts and feelings, conflict, the meaning of dreams, the sensuality of childhood. But psychoanalytic thinking has undergone an enormous expansion and transformation over the past fifty years. With Freud and Beyond, Stephen A. Mitchell and Margaret J. Black make contemporary psychoanalytic thinking--the body of work that has been done since Freud--available for the first time. Richly illustrated with case examples, this lively, jargon-free introduction makes modern psychoanalytic thought accessible at last.
