Tracing their differences, Christopher Bollas examines how these mentalities are now converging once again, notably in the practice of psychoanalysis.   \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCreating a freely associated comparison between western psychoanalysts and eastern philosophers, Bollas demonstrates how the Eastern use of poetry evolved as a collective way to house the individual self. On one hand he links this tradition to the psychoanalytic praxes of Winnicott and Khan\u003cb\u003e, \u003c\/b\u003ewhich he relates to Daoism in their privileging of solitude and non verbal forms of communicating. On the other, Bollas examines how Jung, Bion and Rosenfeld\u003cb\u003e, \u003c\/b\u003eassimilate the Confucian ethic that sees the individual and group mind as a collective, while Freudian psychoanalysis he argues has provided an unconscious meeting place of both viewpoints.      \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBollas's intriguing book will be of interest to psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, Orientalists, and those concerned with cultural studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e   \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53521627775343,"sku":"9780415669764","price":276.97,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/9384\/9711\/files\/0415669766.jpg?v=1790180948","url":"https:\/\/internacional.umlivro.com.br\/products\/china-on-the-mind","provider":"UmLivro Internacional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
