Psychoanalysis, Fatherhood, and the Modern Family

To what extent are the concepts of fatherhood and family, as proposed by Sigmund Freud, still valid?
Psychoanalysis, Fatherhood, and the Modern Family traces the development of Freud's theory of the Oedipus complex and discusses his ideas in the context of recent psychoanalytic work, new sociological data, and theoretical explorations on gender and diversity. Contributors include representatives from many academic disciplines, as well as practicing psychoanalysts who reflect on their experience with patients. Their exciting essays break new ground in defining who a father isand what a father may be.

Traces the development of the Oedipus complex Explores the theory in light of new sociological data and theoretical explorations on gender and diversity Offers a compelling account of 'the father' from various academic disciplines
