Jealousy and Envy
Author: Léon Wurmser
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1136873260
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
Jealousy and envy permeate the practice of psychoanalytic and psychotherapeutic work. New experience and new relevance of old but neglected ideas about these two feeling states and their origins warrant special attention, both as to theory and practice. Their great complexity and multilayered nature are highlighted by a number of contributions: the very early inception of the "triangular" jealousy situations; the prominence of womb envy and hatred against femininity rooted in the envy of female procreativity; the role of shame and the core of both affects; the massive effects of the embodiment of these feelings in the conscience (i.e., the envious and resentful attacks by the "inner judge" against the self); the attempt to construct a cultic system of sacrifices the would countermand womb envy by an all-male cast of killing, rebirth, redemption, and blissful nourishment; and finally, the projection of envy, jealousy, and their context of shame and self-condemnation in the form of the Evil Eye. Taken together, the contributions to the stunning and insightful volume form a broad spectrum of new insights into the dynamics of two central emotions of rivalry and their clinical and cultural relevance and application.

Book Description
Why do mothers fail to breastfeed their babies? The majority of mothers know breastfeeding gives their baby the best start in life yet a mere 17% of mothers are still breastfeeding when their babies are three months old. Why? Controversial author and The Alpha Parent blogger Allison Dixley argues mothers fail to breastfeed because women undermine each other, using a toxic mix of deception, guilt, excuses, envy, contempt, defensiveness and sabotage. Drawing on academic research in psychology, biology, philosophy and anthropology, she sheds light on the hidden emotions of early motherhood, and reveals the deep and widespread damage artificial feeding can have on a mother's confidence in her body, her mothering and in other women.

The Psychology of Men

Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 9780300066203
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
What does it mean to be a man? How do men see themselves in relation to other men, to women, and to both the feminine and the masculine aspects of their own selves? In this fascinating book, a group of outstanding psychoanalysts explore the complexities and ambiguities of masculinity, offering us fresh insights into men's fantasies and conflicts; their developmental tasks, including their role as fathers; and the ways in which men are reacting to changing sexual standards and models. An excellent book. . . . [The contributors] speak with admirable erudition, achieve a choral balance that is rare in a multiauthored work, and eloquently reaffirm the relevance and vitality of contemporary psychoanalytic theory.--Justin Simon, M.D., American Journal of Psychiatry A fascinating book worthy of the attention of therapists, doctors, and nurses who work with male patients, and men and women who love and struggle with men.--Samuel Osherson, Hospital and Community Psychiatry The authors of The Psychology of Men, fifteen gifted thinkers, all well-known analysts, have contributed to this long overdue research. Their combined efforts give us a glimpse of the suffering that lies behind men's homosexual and adolescent struggles, their attempts to meet the challenge of fatherhood, the myth of invulnerability, and the ever-present injunction to 'be a man.' The authors ably demonstrate that this is no easy task.--Joyce McDougall
