商品簡介
Brink (psychiatry, McMaster U., Canada) shows how Freudian and Kleinian theories of creativity are giving way to an attachment model under pressure or anxiety by John Bowlby and other psychobiologists. He argues that an era of rapproachment is arriving between psychoanalysis, neurobiology, and attachment theory and that we are approaching an integrated view of human development and capacity for adaptation. As well as reviewing recent scientific work, he looks at three poets to show how attachment theory illuminates bipolar disorder and poetic creativity. Annotation c.
