The book is divided into four parts. The first looks at the history of psychoanalysis in Turkey. The second investigates the psychology of mothers, fathers, siblings, and the adolescent phase in Turkey. The third addresses the complexities and nuances of identity formation, nostalgic rumination, massive trauma, and female aggression in the context of Turkish society at large, including the use of film and literature. The fourth pertains to technical clinical issues, dealing with matters as diverse as grief, spirituality in the context of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, tenacious maternal transferences and the handling of nonverbal material in the clinical session, to name but a few. While the book is psychoanalytic, not all contributors are analysts; many belong to other fields including psychology, sociology, psychiatry, and cultural anthropology. Thus, this is a book not only for psychoanalysts, but also for members of those fields, psychotherapists, and anyone with an interest in Turkish culture.
