Beskrivning
In The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analyses, Raul Moncayo uses the complex plane to evaluate analytic outcomes. Moncayo’s approach provides a study of the process and outcomes of singular analyses that does not rely on the methods and questionnaires of psychotherapy or medical research.Referencing topology and abstract mathematics, Moncayo explores the limits of the Cartesian plane for predicting the capacity for sublimation and positive outcomes. By integrating the complex plane, Moncayo arrives at an exact number to ‘arithmetize’ symptoms and human capacities.This book represents a new approach to Lacanian analysis and outcomes that will be of great interest to Lacanian analysts in practice and training.

Recensioner i media

"This book adeptly develops a numerical model to mathematize psychoanalytic impact on practice. This work distances number theory from quantification, and this will have an impact on analytic institutions and medical practices. It reflects on the urge to empirically quantify the results of psychoanalysis and offers an alternative model."Arka Chattopadhyay, Associate Professor of Literature, Philosophy and Psychoanalysis, IIT Gandhinagar, India“The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analysis brings together, in a fluent manner, insights from mathematics, psychoanalysis and Buddhism, while anchored in up-to-date developments in physics and biology.”Anca Carrington, author, The Unconscious as Space: From Freud to Lacan, and Beyond
