5.0 out of 5 stars To understand the "cure" one must understand the meaning..., May 23, 2007
By 
fefl "fefl" (Miami, Florida USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How Does Analysis Cure? (Hardcover)
This is one of the most difficult of Kohut's books, published posthumously with the assistance of one of the most talented analysts of this period: Arnold Golberg.

The book is a compendium of Kohut's theories and techniques as well as a defense of the innovations he introduced when he wrote "The Analysis" (of the self) and "The Restoration" (of the self, of course).

For anyone who deals with the narcissism of borderline patients, as-if personalities and eating and its disorders I can not think of a better source of enlightment and wisdom than reading: The Analysis, The Restoration, How does (it) cure? and finally, Heinz Kohut: The Making of a Psychoanalyst.

As a lay person you should feel gratified. As a therapist, you should feel reward it.

4.0 out of 5 stars the cure is not the cause, March 14, 2007
This review is from: How Does Analysis Cure? (Hardcover)
kohut takes the self object theory one further and reinterprets from this lens such great iconographs as the oedipal complex.

compelling read, with a bit of denseness

good for twisting through the labyrinths of the human mind..
