Abstract
Book synopsis: “The collection of 23 essays provides an exciting snapshot of contemporary theorising on the maternal within psychoanalytic and social theory. The introduction serves as an excellent overview of this interdisciplinary field and its importance both to motherhood studies and broader feminist thinking. This book is a triumph!” —Assistant Professor Julie Kelso, Department of Philosophy and Literature, Bond University “Mothering and Psychoanalysis brings together a vibrant collection of critical, interdisciplinary perspectives on psychoanalysis, feminism, motherhood and sociology. In her engaging introduction, Petra Bueskens provides a comprehensive overview of the key de- bates in the field and their contemporary implications. The collection includes reprinted essays from impor- tant thinkers and international contributions from a diverse range of writers who offer fresh and original insights into psychoanalysis and mothering. The book represents some of the best of the new scholarship in maternal studies.” —Associate Professor Julie Stephens, College of Arts, Victoria University, Australia
