Roger Money-Kyrle's classic work throws light on the construction and distortions of our world-model, on the emergence of thinking and of subjective experience. His interest in the cognitive aspect of instinct (instinctive knowledge) and his exploration of the patient's inhibitions as a product of his misconceptions has profound theoretical and clinical implications. The richness of Money-Kyrle's psychoanalytic ideas is enhanced by his capacity to bridge different fields of knowledge such as philosophy, aesthetics, ethics and politics. This new edition includes three of his additional papers and Donald Meltzer's discussion of the key paper on 'Cognitive Development'.
