A bridge between psychoanalysis and the philosophy of science

Marshall Edelson addresses the scientific standing of psychoanalysis through a dialogue between clinical practice and philosophical questions about knowledge and evidence. Framed by his experience as a psychologist, physician, scholar, and psychoanalyst, the book takes up how psychoanalytic claims can be discussed across disciplines that often use different assumptions and vocabularies. This revised edition is a focused examination of what counts as psychoanalytic knowledge and how questions of hypothesis and evidence shape debates about the field.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Psychoanalysts considering questions about the discipline’s scientific status
  • Philosophers of science interested in psychoanalytic knowledge
  • Psychology readers exploring evidence and theory in psychoanalysis
