The Body and Its Pain

  • Type: Book

Physical pain may be, in many cases, considered as a psychic symptom, in the same way as anxiety, depression and obsession are. This is the main thesis of this work which demonstrates, with the help of many clinical case studies, that chronic pain (for which tests reveal no physical cause) always has its origin in a childhood which is seriously lacking in affection. The book presents a fascinating theoretical description of pain, with particular reference to Freud's ideas on the subject, and a detailed account of the treatment by analytical psychotherapy of patients suffering from chronic pain.

A Revised Consent Model for the Transplantation of Face and Upper Limbs: Covenant Consent

  • Publisher: Springer

This book supports the emerging field of vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA) for face and upper-limb transplants by providing a revised, ethically appropriate consent model which takes into account what is actually required of facial and upper extremity transplant recipients. In place of consent as permission-giving, waiver, or autonomous authorization (the standard approaches), this book imagines consent as an ongoing mutual commitment, i.e. as covenant consent. The covenant consent model highlights the need for a durable personal relationship between the patient/subject and the care provider/researcher. Such a relationship is crucial given the recovery period of 5 years or mor...

Our strange body

The ever increasing ability of medical technology to reshape the human body in fundamental ways - from organ and tissue transplants to reconstructive surgery and prosthetics - is something now largely taken for granted. But for a philosopher, such interventions raise fundamental and fascinating questions about our sense of individual identity and its relationship to the physical body. Drawing on and engaging with philosophers from across the centuries, Jenny Slatman here develops a novel argument: that our own body always entails a strange dimension, a strangeness that enables us to incorporate radical physical changes.

La douleur court comme un fil rouge, du début à la fin de la vie et de l'œuvre freudienne, aussi bien dans ses aspects physiques que psychiques. Cependant, les disciples de Freud et les analystes contemporains n'ont pas manifesté le même intérêt pour elle, et la médecine moderne la confie de plus en plus à des consultations ou centres spécialisés. Pourtant, comme Freud le pensait, la douleur physique peut être un symptôme psychique au même titre que l'angoisse, la dépression ou les obsessions. Penser la douleur et essayer de mieux saisir son énigme, c'est faire avancer la compréhension du psychisme humain, en particulier dans son aspect traumatique. Tel est l'objectif de ce ...
