REGRET: DEVELOPMENTAL, CULTURAL, AND CLINICAL REALMS

Book ID/图书代码： 07468317C00001

English Summary/英文概要： Missed opportunities, unfulfilled dreams, and broken promises are the stuff of everyday life and so is regret, the emotion that accompanies them. Unlike remorse which is consequent upon the realization that one has hurt a loved one, regret revolves around a wistful sense of having let oneself down. Middle aged and elderly individuals are specially prone to regret ; the wish to reverse what one did wrong gets intensified as time left to live becomes shorter. Regret also carries with it the potential of masochistic self-flagellation which conceals the omnipotent belief that things could have been otherwise; the fact that life is what it is thus gets denied and eclipsed.

Akhtar and Siassi’s edited volume on regret addresses this inoptimally studied emotion from developmental, cultural, and clinical vantage points. It deepens our understanding of regret, enhances our empathy with ’spilled-milk’ hand-wringing, and sharpens our technical skills to help persons burdened by chronic regret.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 错过的机会，未实现的梦想，和破碎的承诺，都是日常生活的一部分，也是遗憾，伴随它们而来的情感。不像懊悔是在意识到自己伤害了所爱的人之后，后悔是围绕着一种让自己失望的渴望感。中年和老年人群特别容易后悔;随着时间的推移，人们对自己没实现的愿望会变得越来越强烈。遗憾也带有自虐的可能，它隐藏了一种万能的信念，那就是事物本来是可以存在的;生活就是这样的事实，因此被否定和超越。

阿赫塔尔和希阿西斯的（接下行）编辑的遗憾的是，从发展、文化和临床角度来研究这一最不理想的情感。它加深了我们对遗憾的理解，加深了我们对“喝牛奶”的同情，并提高了我们的技术技能，帮助长期后悔的人。(WYL)

遗憾是人类存在的一种普遍的情感，它很少被作为精神分析研究的一个单独的主题。这本书的目的是为了弥补这一遗漏，它提供了一系列有思想的文章，这些文章以临床经验为证，从发展的、文化的和临床的角度来探索后悔和相关的现象，比如内疚、自责和补偿。所有理论信仰的读者和经验水平的读者，都会从这本书中，带着一种卑微的感觉，以及对分析遭遇和人类处境所固有的挑战的深刻理解，从这本书中走出来。——霍华德.B.莱文，医学博士，新英格兰精神分析研究所(东方)和麻省精神分析研究所的分析师

In a book of luminous beauty, Salman Akhtar and Shahrzad Siassi have brought together excellent pieces of writing on the clinically significant topic of regret. The chapters cover the vistas of the life cycle, take us from poetry to the movies, and into the privacy of the consulting room. Reading it was like getting an excellent consultation on my own current work. This book has the capacity to help all of us immensely on both clinical and personal levels. --Aisha Abbasi, MD, training and supervising analyst, Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute, and author of The Rupture of Serenity: External Intrusions and Psychoanalytic Technique

Regret is a commonplace emotion of human existence that has been infrequently addressed as a separate subject of psychoanalytic study. This volume seeks to remedy that omission by offering a series of thoughtful essays anchored in clinical experience that explore regret and related phenomena such as guilt, remorse and reparation, from developmental, cultural and clinical perspectives. Readers of all theoretical persuasions and levels of experience will come away from this evocative book with a humbled sense and profound appreciation of the challenges inherent in the analytic encounter and the human condition. --Howard B. Levine, MD, faculty, Psychoanalytic Institute of New England (East) and supervising analyst, Massachusetts Institute of Psychoanalysis
