Stolorow draws on a variety of sources, including psychoanalysis, philosophy, and neuroscience, to develop a new understanding of transference and countertransference. He argues that these concepts are not simply about the past, but also about the present and the future. They are not simply about the patient's relationship with the therapist, but also about the therapist's relationship with the patient.

Stolorow's new understanding of transference and countertransference has important implications for the practice of psychoanalysis. He argues that therapists need to be more aware of their own countertransference and how it can affect the therapeutic relationship. He also argues that therapists need to be more open to the patient's transference and how it can provide valuable information about the patient's inner world.

Rethinking Transference and Countertransference is a groundbreaking book that challenges traditional understandings of these classic psychoanalytic concepts. Stolorow's new understanding of transference and countertransference has important implications for the practice of psychoanalysis and will be of interest to psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, and anyone interested in the human psyche.
