Ian Craib's new book provides an introductory analysis of attempts to combine cycle analytical and social theory. Starting from a discussion of the work of Freud, the book goes on to look at more recent attempts to combine the two in the work of members of the Frankfurt school and others such as Christopher Badcock, Christopher Lasch, Talcott Parsons and Eric Erickson. The analysis also covers modern feminist approaches to Freud, notably through the writings of Nancy Chodorow and Juliet Mitchell. The author argues that there is no simple way of combining psychoanalytical and social theory, and that both approaches are limited in scope. In exploring these limitations, Craib and argues that objectrelations theory provides a much clear analysis that a more orthodox Freudian approach, while a full investigating the area of human life beyond the limits of sociology. Psychoanalysis and Social Theory is essential reading for students taking courses in sociological theory and social psychology, and will also be of interest to practicing psychotherapist and those undertaking psychotherapy training.
