- More about Hatred, Emptiness, and Hope: Transference-Focused Psychotherapy in Personality Disorders
Otto F. Kernberg, M.D., of Weill Cornell Medical College, presents an updated vision of psychoanalytic object relations theory and its application to transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP), a treatment approach derived from and related to psychoanalysis. The book illustrates TFP's applicability in various scenarios, such as schizoid personality disorders, psychotic personality organization, disturbances in sexuality and love relations in narcissistic personalities, inpatient hospital treatment, and large group regression in organizational and political settings. It also discusses the implications of new developments in neurobiology on psychoanalytic object relations theory and examines the practice of TFP, including controversial issues regarding supervision, the future of psychoanalysis, and innovations to strengthen its role in mental health sciences.

In this groundbreaking new volume, Otto F. Kernberg, M.D., of Weill Cornell Medical College, presents an updated vision of psychoanalytic object relations theory, unveiling its profound application to transference-focused psychotherapy (TFP), a treatment approach rooted in, and closely connected to, psychoanalysis. This comprehensive collection of previously published articles and fresh material, derived from empirical studies conducted at the Personality Disorders Institute of Weill Cornell, vividly showcases the versatility of TFP in addressing various clinical scenarios. These include:
• Schizoid personality disorders
• Psychotic personality organization
• Disturbances in sexuality and love relations in cases of narcissistic personalities
• Inpatient hospital treatment
• Large group regression in organizational and political settings as a consequence of malignant narcissism
Hatred,Emptiness, and Hope also delves into the implications of recent advancements in neurobiology on psychoanalytic object relations theory, exploring the intricate interplay between neurobiological dispositions and their interaction with psychodynamic developments.
Beyond providing a thorough exploration of TFP's application to severe personality disorders, this book also critically examines the practice of TFP itself, addressing contentious issues surrounding the supervision of psychoanalysis and its derived psychotherapies. It also explores the challenges for the future of psychoanalysis and innovative approaches that can strengthen its role as a profession, a treatment approach, and a vital social organization within the realm of mental health sciences.
