Beskrivning
In this book, Kobi Tiberg presents a novel neuropsychoanalytic perspective that integrates psychoanalytic theory with contemporary neuroscience, particularly predictive processing, to explore trauma across mind and brain.Building on Freud’s concept of binding, the book examines trauma as a state of overwhelming surprise where prediction errors cannot be resolved, leaving mental and neural processes unbound. It offers a unique dual-aspect approach, addressing both neurological forms of trauma, such as acquired brain injury, and relational developmental trauma, revealing functional links between brain mechanisms and subjective experience. The book provides fresh insights into dissociation, repetition, and post-traumatic adaptation, whilst also exploring how mechanisms underlying trauma – surprise, disruption, and unbinding – may be reengaged under favorable conditions in domains such as sexuality and humor, allowing for transformation rather than mere repetition. Clinical implications are also discussed, offering reflections on how these mechanisms may inform therapeutic practice.Written for clinicians, researchers, and students in psychoanalysis, neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry, this integrative framework bridges theory and practice, making complex concepts accessible to those working with or studying trauma from multiple perspectives.

Recensioner i media

‘The compass of this book is remarkable: it casts Freud’s binding (bindung) of free energy as a physics of sentience—apt for contemporary views of the brain as an organ of inference and prediction. The ensuing treatment offers a principled account of trauma, foregrounding the crosscutting themes in neurological and relational trauma. The dénouement of this treatment shows how the mechanics of trauma can be harnessed to remediate its effects through sexuality and humour.’Karl J. Friston, MBBS, MA, MRCPsych, MAE, FMedSci, FRBS, FRS, Professor: Queen Square Institute of Neurology, University College London, Honorary Consultant: The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery‘Tiberg’s book is original, thoughtful and very well written. Makes an easy read of complicated matters. Intellectually enjoyable.’Carlo Semenza, Professor Emeritus, Department of Neuroscience, University of Padova, Italy‘Neuropsychoanalysis is at its best when it is informed by clinicians who have experience of neurological disorders, as well as bringing the novelty of a psychoanalytic perspective. Kobi Tiberg delivers exactly this combination, and brings decades of experience to understanding the many causal factors and manifestations of trauma. The book is simultaneously well informed and thought provoking!’Oliver Turnbull, Professor of Neuropsychology, Bangor University, UK
