The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analyses
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-99986-9 (ISBN)
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.
Raul Moncayo was born in Chile and first trained as a psychoanalyst in Buenos Aires. He obtained his PhD in social-clinical psychology at the Wright Institute in Berkeley and trained as an analyst at the Lacanian School of Psychoanalysis, which he also helped found. He is the founder of the Chinese American Center for Freudian and Lacanian Analysis and Research.
