Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber is a training analyst in the German Psychoanalytical Association, former Chair of the Research Subcommittees for Conceptual Research, and a member of the Swiss Psychoanalytical Society. She is Vice Chair of the Research Board of the International Psychoanalytical Association, Full Professor for Psychoanalysis at the University of Kassel, and head Director of the Sigmund Freud Institute, Frankfurt/Main. Her main research fields include epistemology and methods of clinical and empirical research in psychoanalysis, interdisciplinary discourse with embodied cognitive science, educational sciences, and modern German literature.

'Psychoanalysts have always recognised that the mind is embodied, from Freud's first sexual theories right through to the latest contributions of the Paris school of psychosomatics. But the most influential recent developments in this area have emanated not from psychoanalysis but from other disciplines, under the broad heading of "embodied cognitive science". Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber is almost unique among psychoanalysts for having remained abreast of these developments. Drawing on her considerable clinical and research experience over several decades, this book provides a highly readable account of what modern psychoanalysts need to know about embodiment, in a language they will understand and easily apply to their practical work.'- Mark Solms, Psychoanalyst and Professor in Neuropsychology, Cape Town, South Arica'The author offers us clinical cases that illustrate how psychoanalysis enlightens the mental experience of the body. At the same time, with rigorous scholarship, she engages in dialogue with neuroscience and embodied cognitive science, showing us promising ways - methodical, conceptual, epistemological and social - to keep psychoanalysis alive and at the vanguard of the twenty-first century.'- Ricardo Bernardi, Director and Professor, Institute of Psychological Medicine, National Univeristy of Uruguay; and training analyst, Psychoanalytic Institute of Uruguay'This highly interesting book shows the unique work of the Sigmund Freud Institute in Frankfurt over the last decades: building bridges in an interdisciplinary dialogue between psychoanalysis, the neurosciences and embodied cognitive science in the form of theoretical models and practical research. Inspiring and challenging!'- Dieter Burgin, training analyst of the Swiss Psychoanalytical Society, Professor Emeritus for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry'For Freud, the mind was embodied: as he famously put it, "the ego is first and foremost a bodily ego". A century later, Marianne Leuzinger-Bohleber brings forth a towering effort to integrate the ways in which the embodiment of mind has been addressed by psychoanalysis and the neurosciences.'- Jorge L. Ahumada, training analyst of the Argentine Psychoanalytic Association, Distinguished Fellow of the British Psychoanalytical Society'This book is intellectually stimulating, challenging, but also entertaining and shows a clear path of where psychoanalysis might go in the future. A must for anyone interested in psychoanalysis and clinical practice and theory in general.'- Rolf Pfeifer, Institute for Academic Initiatives, Osaka University, Japan; and Visiting Professor, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China
