Bogdan Wolf received his PhD from Warwick University in the 1990s. He worked in the European School of Psychoanalysis before becoming editor of the 'Psychoanalytical Notebooks', a publication of the London Society in the Lacanian Orientation. He has authored several articles and book contributions in English, French, Spanish and Polish, co-edited the widely praised collection 'Later Lacan', and translated numerous texts. He has lived and worked in private practice in London for over twenty years.

'English-speaking readers of contemporary psychoanalytic literature will know Dr Bogdan Wolf as the founding editor of the long-standing Psychoanalytical Notebooks, which he directed single-handedly for nearly a decade. This new volume is an ambitious collection of texts that had their first outing in the said journal, and which present, in a tone by turns forthright and serpentine, a personal and unprecedented reading of some of the key texts of twentieth-century psychoanalysis.'- Adrian R. Price, psychoanalyst, translator of Anxiety: The Seminar of Jacques Lacan, Book X 'In this book, Bogdan Wolf explores what is at stake in the meaning of subjectivity, probing some of the pivotal existential questions that bring people to analysis: What do I want? Why is life so difficult? Why does love never last long enough? Making comprehensive use of his own extensive experience as both analyst and analysand, he pays particular attention to the difficulties engendered by the paradoxical satisfaction that so often engulfs the subject. Deploying a singularly provocative style, he offers a unique perspective on the discourses of academia, science and religion, while aiming, at the same time, at circumscribing the knowledge produced in the analytic experience. Also essential to his argument is an insistence on knotting together the numerous issues that students and experienced analysts alike should reflect on in light of the complexities confronting the contemporary clinic.'- Gabriela van den Hoven, psychologist and psychoanalyst; Chair of the London Society of the New Lacanian School
