Cognitive Science and the Unconscious

Resource Type

Book

Description

"Can a worthwhile exchange be set up between the seemingly opposing viewpoints of psychoanalytic therapy and cognitive science? Stein and the other contributing authors of Cognitive Science and the Unconscious say yes. In fact, it is their contention that such an interchange of theory and method - combining the theoretical clarity and empirical rigor of cognitive science with the richness and complexity of clinical work - holds the promise of enriching both disciplines. The concept of unconsciousness, as variously conceived by psychoanalysis ("The Unconscious") and cognitive science ("unconscious processing"), is the reference point of this dialogue."--(www.appi.org)
