Edwards draws on her rich clinical experience spanning over thirty years to look at the issues and problems around the role of the father in clinical work with a range of patients, spanning from classical psychoanalytic thinking to fiction, myth, and iconography. These multifaceted approaches allow us to explore the complexities of fatherhood for each unit of the family and to tease out both the problems and positives associated with fathers and fatherhood. Enriched with clinical vignettes, this book shares a new outlook on how patterns of manhood or personhood evolve over time and encourages the reader to not limit paternal function to sexual or cultural binaries.
At a time when the role of men in society is ever more under debate, this book offers a fascinating and multi-faceted exploration of a key role for men and offers guidance to clinicians, and anyone interested in exploring the notion of fatherhood.
Dr Judith Edwards PhD is a retired consultant, psychoanalytic child and adolescent psychotherapist, and internationally published author, who worked for 35 years at the Tavistock Clinic. Her latest book Grandmotherland was published in 2024. She is interested in making psychoanalytic ideas more accessible for wider audiences, as she said in Psychoanalysis and Other Matters (Routledge): other matters matter.
