Introduction To The Geometry Of Complex Numbers

21世紀，重返佛洛伊德，重新理解佛洛伊德所有重要的事件都銘記或鐫刻在心中的某個地方，我們的任務是要找到通達它們的方法。在當代心理學或精神醫學的主流氛圍中，佛洛伊德似乎顯得格格不入。教科書中，他的理論往往僅作為心理學史上的一個里程碑被簡略提及；臨床現場，腦化學、遺傳學研究提供了生物學方面的解釋，認知行為療法和藥物治療往往成為醫師及病人首選。與此同時，大數據和人工智慧的應用也正在改變心理健康服務的面貌，個體化的演算法似乎可以取代深度的個案分析，甚至試圖根據個人的基因組成來預測和治療心理問題。佛洛伊德深入探索個人歷史、重視主觀經驗、需要長期投入的方法，看起來是一種過於奢侈、甚至過時的做法。然而，神經科學最新研究提出不一樣的見解。研究者結合神經科學與精神分析，探討情感的核心地位，提醒我們真正的智能和意識可能需要超越純粹的資訊處理，深入情感和主觀經驗的層面。至於如何深入？或許就是當代臨床工作者需要「重返佛洛伊德」，重新閱讀、重新理解的課題。+++++當佛洛伊德在《精神分析引論》中說「話語最初是魔法……即使到了今天，話語仍保留了許多它們古老的魔力」時，並不是在故弄玄虛，而是要他的聽眾，包括精神分析的學徒們，深刻地去體察所謂「話語的魔力」（the magic of words）這件事情在精神分析經驗中所扮演的重要角色。布魯斯・芬克是當代備受讚譽的拉岡代言人，也是佛洛伊德最佳的詮釋者。在本書中，他將佛洛伊德視為一位臨床工作者，將佛洛伊德理論視為他在治療病人近五十載的過程中，為了處理不斷遇到的問題，所發展出的一系列理論及實務做法。《在診間遇見佛洛伊德》以一種非常實用的方式介紹佛洛伊德，提供了大量來自日常生活和臨床實踐的例子，證明佛洛伊德思想的深刻見解和持續存在的價值。書中也將佛洛伊德許多基本概念——例如抑制、隔離、移置、焦慮、情感、自由聯想、重複、強迫症和願望滿足——置於臨床脈絡，實際呼應第一線工作者所面臨的個案。對實務工作者來說，無意識可說是佛洛伊德最重要的理論貢獻，本書第一章和第二章透過佛洛伊德如何構想出無意識的存在，討論其作品最根本的基礎，以及他和布洛伊爾一開始治療的那些病人。第三章從解釋佛洛伊德如何釋夢，延伸至臨床上如何詮釋病人的夢境，以及如何處理口誤、失誤動作等，人們經常「失手」犯下的「錯誤」。第四章和第五章討論兩種佛洛伊德談過且最常見的診斷結構：強迫症（obsession
