"This book is a convincing example of how contemporary psychoanalysis is constantly continuing and revitalizing the Freudian tradition of innovative interdisciplinary dialogues. Particularly severely traumatized analysands feel thrown out of time, never really having arrived in their own life, without a sense of past, present and future. The “search for lost times” (A la recherche du temps perdu, Proust) in psychoanalysis becomes an existential experience for many of them. However: how can such central psychic transformations be understood from the perspective of today's neurosciences, modern physics, philosophy and history? The outstanding authors of this volume take the reader on a stimulating journey towards a deeper understanding of time as one of the basic categories of human life."Prof. Dr. Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber, Psychoanalytic principal investigator of the MODE Study, recipient of the IPA’s Outstanding Scientific Achievement Award, 2023, Germany"An extraordinary collection that bridges psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and other sciences, like physics and history, to illuminate the multiple experiences of time. Profoundly relevant for understanding temporality in clinical practice and theory. A major contribution to contemporary psychoanalytic thought." Dr. Jorge Eduardo Catelli, Psy.D., Full Member and Training Analyst of the Argentine Psychoanalytic Association, Argentina"This volume is a fine literary achievement expressing the EPF spirit of dialogic exchange which arose in the Symposium on Time (2022). The chapters illustrate a creative crosspollination of inter-disciplinary thinking that evolved. The arguments are lively, compelling and generative. This book is sure to endure the test of time and become one of the classic EPF books."Jan Abram, EPF President (2024 – 2028) and author of 'The Surviving Object: Psychoanalytic clinical essays on psychic survival-of-the-object (2022)' New Library of Psychoanalysis, Routledge, UK
