Abstract
- The book "Psychoanalysis and Homosexuality: A Contemporary Introduction" by Hertzmann and Newbigin provides an accessible yet complex exploration of psychoanalysis beyond heteronormativity and homophobia. The authors review past and contemporary psychoanalytic approaches, discussing topics such as internalized homophobia and present-day clinical challenges. They also highlight the historical influence of social attitudes on psychoanalytic concepts of sexuality and gender, emphasizing the need to critically question and address the implicit and explicit homophobia within the field. The book offers valuable insights and references for further reading, making it a useful resource for both beginners and experienced researchers in the field of psychoanalysis.
