Standing in the Spaces recapitulates and extends a unique creative odyssey in modern clinical theory. Long regarded as one of the most original writers in contemporary psychoanalysis, Philip Bromberg here reprises some of his classic essays and offers new contributions as he continues his journey toward a relationally informed view of the clinical process. Advancing no overarching theoretical system, Bromberg moves in ever-widening exploratory circles as he works his way into the complexities of personality change. Bromberg's essays are unpredictable, as they strive to keep the reader continually abreast of how words can and cannot capture the subtle shifts in relatedness that characterize the clinical process. Indeed, at times Bromberg's writing seems vividly to recreate the alternating states of mind of the relational analyst at work. Standing in the Spaces is a classic destined to be read and reread by analysts and therapists for decades to come.
