This vintage copy of “Psychoanalysis” by Daniel Lagache offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of psychoanalytic thought. Published in the Walker Sun Books series, which aimed to make complex topics accessible to a wider audience, this work serves as an introduction to the theories and practices of psychoanalysis. Lagache, a French psychologist and philosopher, was a prominent figure in the Parisian intellectual scene of the mid-20th century and a student of the renowned psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan. Through his writings, Lagache sought to bridge the gap between psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice, making him a influential voice in the field. This particular edition, translated by Beatrice Scott, presents Lagache’s insights in a clear and engaging manner, making it an excellent resource for both students and enthusiasts of psychoanalysis. Despite its age and the absence of a dust jacket, this copy remains in remarkably good condition, with clean pages and a sturdy binding, a testament to its enduring value as a seminal work in the history of psychoanalytic thought.
