Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is the first book designed to teach therapists how to listen and intervene from multiple perspectives. Through study and analysis of session transcripts, the reader learns how to listen and formulate interpretations from four different perspectives: reflection, analysis of conflict, analysis of transference, and analysis of defense. Each listening approach is introduced with a brief chapter illustrating the rules of intervention followed by therapy transcripts, which the reader studies and analyzes. By studying the transcripts, answering the questions in the material, and comparing his answers with those provided by the author, the reader will learn how to reflect, analyze conflict, interpret the transference, and analyze the defenses.
Beginning therapists can use this book to acquire listening and intervention skills. Advanced therapists will enjoy studying and comparing listening approaches from a meta-theoretical perspective. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy provides a framework for studying how each approach focuses on a different analytic surface, and uses different rules for timing and content of interpretation.

生活在现代中国的人，都明白见证传统流失，老景翻新的感觉。在北京，也许你上周还在一条巷子里的小店吃面条，下周再去就发现那儿已经变成了一堆瓦砾。
相比之下，东北的历史还不算那么遥远。
你乘坐的火车可能行驶在以沙皇命名的铁路上；你漫步而过的建筑不是佛教古寺，而是洋葱圆顶的俄罗斯东正教教堂；你走过的大道两旁种着日本赤松；树木掩映之下，是殖民时期各国政府的办公楼，散发着浓浓的旧时代气息；你还可以去参观溥仪的“傀儡皇宫”，看看二战时期日本关押盟军战俘的地方；你站在朝鲜战争期间美军飞行员俯冲轰炸过的大桥上，就是站在中朝边境上，跨越了鸭绿江。
17世纪早期，东北，开始比较频繁地出现在有记载的古代历史中。当时在世界的另一边，莎士比亚正在创作经典戏剧，英格兰的清教徒登陆普利茅斯岩，开始创建美国。
也许你不知道这里曾经发生了什么故事，有什么样的过往。而在我眼里，这些恰恰就是历史的印记，记录了东北的兴衰荣辱，也浓缩了现代中国的起落沉浮。
1993年，美国的人口普查不再把农民的数量算在统计范围内，只有不到2%的美国人居住在农村。但中国，有将近一半的人口，大概七亿人，还住在荒地这样的乡村。不过，这个数字正在直线下降：2000年以来，中国有四分之一的乡村已经悄然消失。
我很清楚，在东北，能够对中国的过去一探究竟。但没有料到，在荒地，我能一瞥这个国家的未来。

With his brutal post-industrial music, theatrical makeup and controversial lyrics about serial killers and Satanism, shock rocker Marilyn Manson has stood as an icon for a generation of dispossessed teens. It is less well known that Manson has been painting pictures since 1999. Genealogies of Pain presents 30 of his paintings, executed over the past ten years. Manson's portraits of cartoonish characters are rendered in delicate pastel colors, but the subject matter accords with his notoriously morbid aesthetic: one figure gnaws off his own fingers, another wears a gas mask. This volume pairs Manson with filmmaker David Lynch, who has also made a living out of mining mankind's darkest carnal fears. Included here are stills from four of Lynch's early short experimental films, Six Men Getting Sick, The Grandmother, The Amputee and The Alphabet, which employ similar themes of physical and psychological trauma. An interview with Manson explores his techniques and relevant art historical traditions.
