The chapters in this book provide valuable insight into Green's response to a perceived crisis in psychoanalysis. His thinking synthesizes the work of Lacan, Winnicott, Bion and other post-Freudian authors with his own extensive clinical experience, and results in a much needed extension of psychoanalytic theory and practice to non-neurotic patients. Green's focus on drives, affect and the work of the negative and his introduction and exploration of the Dead Mother complex, narcissism, negative hallucination and the death instinct constitute a vital expansion of Freudian metapsychology and its application to the clinical setting.
The Freudian Matrix of André Green will be essential reading for psychoanalysts in practice and in training, and for any reader looking to understand more about the enormity of his contribution.

"Howard Levine collects valuable gold nuggets from the great mine that is the vast oeuvre of André Green and makes them available to the English-speaking reader. With these texts, he shines a powerful light on Green's indispensable contributions to contemporary psychoanalysis. It is evident in this volume how the French author, starting from his Freudian roots and influenced by Lacan, Winnicott and Bion, brings extremely original and at the same time fundamental contributions to the psychoanalyst of today. An indispensable read!" - Ruggero Levy, Full Member and Training Analyst of the Porto Alegre Psychoanalytic Society (SPPA - Brasil)
