Selected Papers of Malcom Pines
Reflections on Group Analysis and Psychoanalysis brings together a selection of works, including several previously unpublished and available for the first time, from the three main areas of work in Malcolm Pines' career: Group Analysis, Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience. The chapters span some sixty years of his career and chart his immersion in primary training and work as a British psychoanalyst. Pines remains one of the most pivotal and important individuals in group analysis and therapy. In this book, he aims to show how Group Analytic theory is a nodal point in the network of Psychodynamic development, encompassing developmental psychology, neuroscience, ethology, social sciences and linguistics. Reflections on Group Analysis and Psychoanalysis: The Selected Works of Malcom Pines will be essential reading for students and practitioners of group analysis and therapy, psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

The Individual and the Group
Malcolm Pines and Lise Rafaelsen The Seventh International Congress of Group Psychotherapy organized in Copenhagen by the International Association of Group Psychotherapy was one of the largest and most representative congresses on this subject that has yet been held. Probably for the first time we achieved the declared aim of the International Association: that of bringing together representatives of the different approaches to group psychotherapy in the same forum to allow for communication, exchange, and development of our relation ships. Previous congresses have been less representative and it seems to augur well for the future of the Association and of it's congresses that there was thi...
Self Experiences in Group
Using clinical examples, the contributors demonstrate the 'good enough' healing power of carefully constructed and supervised groups conducted by therapists who apply both Kohut's self psychological concepts and those currently evolving from intersubjectivity throughout the world. Among the topics covered in this volume are: - the recent advances in hermeneutics, self psychology and intersubjectivity theory - the universal need for a group object - Kohut's thinking on archaic and mature twinship - the applicability of new infant research - the need to examine early childhood multiple cross-cultural selfobject and traumatic experiences within transferences - the utilization of a co-therapy model - and how to create optimal group environments. Mixing new theoretical developments with clinical research and practice, Self Experiences in Group breaks new ground and illustrates how these concepts can be applied to work at infant, child or adult level.

The Anti-Group
The 'anti-group' is a major conceptual addition to the theory and practice of group psychotherapy. It comprises the negative, disruptive elements, which threaten to undermine and even destroy the group, but when contained, have the potential to mobilise the group's creative processes. Understanding the 'anti-group' gives therapists new perspectives on the nature of relationships and alternative strategies for managing destructive behaviour.
Traumatic Experience in the Unconscious Life of Groups
Earl Hopper, in his important, profound and well reasoned book introduces a fourth Basic Assumption (Incohesion) to the three Basic assumptions (of Flight/ Fight, Pairing and Dependency) introduced by Bion. Hopper's theory of Incohesion provides us with a new way of thinking about annihilation anxiety, which he discusses in terms of the unconscious fears of annihilation connected to the fears of separation.' - System Centered News 'What we may learn most from reading Hopper's profound thinking presented in this surprisingly readable book is how he makes the bridge from his theory to the treatment of difficult patients. He identifies aggregation and Massification as a characteristic of regres...
