Books in the Psychology and the Other series

This timely collection asks the reader to consider how society¿s modern notion of humans as rational, isolated individuals has contributed to psychological and social problems and oppressive power structures.

Unconscious Incarnations considers the status of the body in psychoanalytic theory and practice, bringing Freud and Lacan into conversation with continental philosophy to explore the heterogeneity of embodied life. By doing so, the body is no longer merely an object of scientific inquiry but also a lived body, a source of excessive intuition and affectivity, and a raw animality distinct from mere materiality.
