The Pocket Dictionary of Psychoanalysis: 300 Essential Terms from Freud, Jung, Klein, Winnicott, Lacan and Contemporary Psychoanalysis
About this audiobook
Psychoanalysis has transformed how we understand dreams, desire, conflict, childhood, relationships, and the unconscious—but its vocabulary can be difficult to enter. The Pocket Dictionary of Psychoanalysis makes that language accessible without flattening its complexity.
Written in clear American English, this compact reference presents 300 carefully structured entries covering Freud, Jung, Melanie Klein, Winnicott, Lacan, Bion, object relations, ego psychology, self psychology, trauma theory, and contemporary clinical psychoanalysis. Each entry offers a concise definition, theoretical associations, cross-references, and—where relevant—a note on clinical use.
Designed for students, clinicians, educators, writers, and curious readers, the book works equally well as an introduction, a study companion, and a quick professional reference. It is Volume 1 of The Pocket Psychoanalysis Library from ABRAFP International Press: Essential Concepts. Major Thinkers. Clear Definitions.
