This volume is based on a year's seminar, which is of particular importance because he was addressing a larger, less specialist audience than ever before, amongst whom he could not assume familiarity with his work. For his listeners then, and for his readers now, he wanted \"to introduce a certain coherence into the major concepts on which psycho-analysis is based\", namely the unconscious, repetition, the transference and the drive. In re-defining these four concepts he explores the question that, as he puts it, moves from \"Is psycho-analysis a science?\" to \"What is a science that includes psycho-analysis?\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jacques Lacan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 185575357X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855753570\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/23\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Jacques Lacan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989229338879,"sku":"9781855753570","price":36.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ff266478-5ea8-4779-86ed-6bc2e2a46281.jpg?v=1683298315","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-four-fundamental-concepts-of-jacques-lacan-9781855753570","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
