This book offers a groundbreaking perspective on the human capacity for intersubjective engagement and the nature of authentic encounters. The authors engage in creative, associative dialogues and trialogues inspired by psychoanalysis, Buddhism, poetry, religion, theory, and case studies, each enriching the other. Reflecting on the essence of relating, they convey a flow between inner, private reveries and shared ones, and between individual expressions of thought and the evolution of newly born thirds. Through this interdisciplinary, experimental setting, the authors explore the possibility of reaching truths and meanings that each individual would not have achieved on their own.

Offering new concepts and formulations that may nourish psychotherapists' thought and be usefully implemented in their practice, this book presents a uniquely essential viewpoint for psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic psychotherapists in training and in practice.
