| Summary: | John M. Heaton’s The Talking Cure: Wittgenstein on Language as Bewitchment & Clarity follows a number of other publications by the author on Wittgenstein and psychoanalysis, including The Talking Cure: Wittgenstein’s Therapeutic Method for Psychotherapy (2010). His latest book continues a project that attempts to inject a measure of clarity into the discourse on psychotherapeutic praxis by moving away from schematic approaches that rely upon “picture-driven theorising which takes ‘the mind’ to refer to some sort of substance with an innate structure” (p. xii). |
