The Art of Interpretation

The Art of Interpretationis a profound examination by Wolfgang Loch of Freud's use and definition of interpretation as a therapeutic tool as well as viewing it from the philosophical perspective of meaning and its definition. Loch does not confine himself to the examination of Freud's discoveries but also follows the later developments made by Klein and Bion. Wolfgang Loch was a revered teacher of psychoanalysis in Germany and this is his best-known work. It now appears in this excellent English translation making it available at last to both English speaking teachers and students of psychoanalysis.
