Illusions and Disillusions of Psychoanalytic Work is the title the author has opted for rather than that of failure, a term that does not seem suitable to him, in the specific field of psychoanalysis, for recounting and exploring the disappointing and sometimes tragic evolutions of the treatments of certain patients who are resistant to the effects of analytic work. In this book he reports cases taken from his own experience and that of his collaborators. He points out, moreover, that such cases have never been absent from the series of analysands that he has treated, from the early days of his practice up until today, without minimizing his counter-transference reactions or their possible impact on these disappointing evolutions.
