This book is the first English-language publication regarding the psychoanalytical clinical setting in Japan. It introduces the actual clinical practices of Japanese psychoanalysis, which are probably less well-known to psychoanalysts in other countries. The book consists of considerations on disease theories, basic theories such as neutrality, therapeutic structure and transference interpretations, and Freud’s Wolfman case and the Rat Man case.
