The theory of mentalising and epistemic trust introduced by Peter Fonagy and colleagues at the Anna Freud Centre has been an important perspective on mental health and illness. Mentalising and Epistemic Trust is the first comprehensive account and evaluation of this perspective. The book explorestwenty primary concepts that organise the contributions of Fonagy and colleagues: adaptation, aggression, the alien self, culture, disorganised attachment, epistemic trust, hypermentalising, reflective function, the P factor, pretend mode, the primary unconscious, psychic equivalence, mentalillness, mentalising, mentalisation-based therapy, non-mentalising, the self, sexuality, the social environment, and teleological mode. The biographical and social context of the development of these ideas is examined. The book also specifies the current strengths and limitations of the theory ofmentalising and epistemic trust, with attention to the implications for both clinicians and researchers. This book will be of interest to historians of the human sciences, developmental psychologists, and clinicians interested in taking a broader perspective on psychological theory and concepts. | Mentalising And Epistemic Trust by Robbie Duschinsky, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
