| | | APSA_NY12-404 | | Meet the Author: Dr. Steven Cooper Speakers: Hans Agrawal, MD (Cambridge, MA); Kenneth M. Newman, MD (Chicago, IL); Author: Steven Cooper, PhD (Cambridge, MA) Book: A Disturbance in the Field: Essays in Transference/Counter-Transference Engagement.” The field, as Steven Cooper describes it, is comprised of the inextricably related worlds of internalized object relations and interpersonal interaction. His essays try to locate some of the most ineffable types of situations for the analyst to take up with patients, such as the underlying grandiosity of self-criticism; the problems of too much congruence between what a patient fantasizes about and the analyst’s anticipatory fantasies related to treatment. Provocatively, he takes up the analyst’s counter-transference to the psychoanalytic method itself, including a variety of levels of thinking about and not thinking the transference/counter-transference and his uses of reverie.
