The New Wounded: From Neurosis to Brain Damage (Forms of Living (Fup))

The New Wounded: From Neurosis to Brain Damage (Forms of Living (Fup))

by StevenMiller (Translator), Catherine Malabou (Author)

Synopsis

This book addresses the issue of trauma and psychic wounds to stage a confrontation between psychoanalysis and contemporary neurobiology. In so doing, it reevaluates the brain as an organ that is not separated from psychic life but rather appears as its very locus. A philosophical approach of the "new wounded" (brain lesion patients) forms the matter of the confrontation.
