Gunnar Karlsson Psychoanalysis in a New Light. Cambridge University Press, 2010

Karlsson's book is dedicated to epistemological justification of main concepts of psychoanalysis: libido, unconsciousness and attraction. The central and main part of the book is devoted to the problem of conceptualization of mental, which the author sees in the definition and interpretation of the concept of the unconsciousness in psychoanalysis. Phenomenological tradition is used here as an instrumental apparatus and accompanying tradition, but the book, investigating points of similarities and gaps between two traditions, is one of the variants of scientific cooperation of phenomenology with psychoanalysis.
