Psychoanalysis, Group Analysis, and Beyond presents an important new paradigm in psychoanalysis and group analysis, considering the individual and the group as elements of a wider whole while taking socio-political and cultural contexts into account. Juan Tubert-Oklander and Reyna Hernández-Tubert explore the contributions of group analysis to this new perspective, suggesting a holistic conception of what the common-sense view of the world conceives as the individual and the community. This book will be of great interest to group analysts, psychoanalysts, and psychotherapists in practice and in training, as well as other professionals specialising in group work.
