Dr. Thomas Ogden is the most widely read psychoanalyst writing today. This, his most important book, describes how one thinks and works as an analyst; how to increase the capacity to feel in a visceral way in the alive moments of a session; and how, through close attention to the nuances of language, gestures, and actions, to grasp the intersubjective construction the patient and therapist are creating.
