Description
1. This book presents an original analysis of sexual difference, emphasising the psychoanalytic experience and its effects upon how a subject experiences the difference between being a body and having a body;
2. Yusin elucidates this potentially muddied (?) area with an approachable writing style, highlighting the tools contemporary analysts need to advance their own notions of sex and gender, as well as how to update their lexicon and approach to the topic;
3. Throughout, Yusin draws on the psychoanalytic theories of Freud, Lacan and Winnicott, as well as theories of sexuality and gender developed by Michel Foucault, Judith Butler and Jack Halberstam;
