This book provides a clear and accessible overview of the seminal clinical thinking of Christopher Bollas.

Placing Bollas's writings besides those of analysts including Milner, Bion, Winnicott, Lacan, and Green, Steven Jaron examines the central concept of the unthought known in terms of unconscious communication in the primary environment while occasioning a reworking of Oedipal configurations. Through vivid narratives of character analyzing a range of adult patients, at times requiring a rethinking of the conventional psychoanalytic frame, Jaron offers a fresh perspective on Bollas in arguing for the importance of considering not only the patient's self experience but also the psychoanalyst's.

This important study will be rewarding to beginning and seasoned analysts alike, offering suggestions for using Bollas' work in the consulting room as well as when faced with the demands of civic life today.

Steven Jaron, PhD, is a psychoanalyst working in the 15-20 National Ophthalmology Hospital and in private practice in Paris. Before studying at the Psychoanalytic Society for Research and Training (SPRF), he obtained a doctorate in French and Comparative Literature from Columbia University.
