  • Manuel de psychologie et de psychopathologie clinique générale

    • 3rd Edition
    • René Roussillon
    • French
    Ce manuel présente la logique des processus de la vie psychique à tous les âges de la vie, de la naissance à la vieillesse. Les auteurs, issus de la pensée psychanalytique, retracent tout d’abord l’histoire de la réalité psychique de la subjectivité. Ils présentent ensuite les logiques, en large partie inconscientes, qui sous-tendent les formes d’expression de la psychopathologie. L’apport des neurosciences dans le champ de la psychopathologie est également abordé. Une approche projective complète enfin cette démarche d’ensemble et fournit une méthode pour médiatiser la subjectivité propre du clinicien. Ainsi composé, ce manuel s’adresse à tous ceux qui, étudiants, jeunes professionnels et psychologues confirmés, sont soucieux d’une vue d’ensemble actualisée de l’approche clinique de la vie psychique et des formes de sa pathologie. Cette troisième édition a été enrichie d’un nouveau chapitre sur la délinquance et la criminalité et d’un développement conséquent sur les psychothérapies.
