Psychoanalysis has been in dire need of a more consistent theory informed by the wealth of findings in cognitive science that help to answer questions about how the mind works. In this book, psychoanalytic researcher Wilma Bucci shows how the investigation of mental processes can be integrated with psychoanalytic theory and presents a coherent model of the mind--termed "multiple code" theory. Clinically grounded and empirically based, this book offers a thought-provoking reconceptualization of psychoanalytic theory.
