Self Psychology and the Humanities: Reflections on a New Psychoanalytic Approach

Included are previously unpublished essays on courage, leadership, and the self in society, earlier published papers presenting the theoretical basis of Kohut's ideas, and transcripts of conversations between Kohut and Strozier about cultures as interpreted by depth psychology. Psychoanalysts, as well as historians and others interested in the history of ideas, will welcome the publication of Kohut's last work.
