Author: Joseph D. LichtenbergPublisher: The Analytic PressPaperback:ISBN 10: 0881633585ISBN 13: 978-0881633580Carrying forward his inquiry into the nature and conditions of normal and abnormal development, Lichtenberg focuses on motivation. His goal is to offer an alternative to psychoanalytic drive theory that accommodates the developmental insights of infancy research while accounting for the entire range of phenomena addressed by the theory of instinctual drives. To this end, he propounds a comprehensive theory of the self, which then gains expression in five discrete yet interactive motivational systems. Review "Joseph Lichtenberg has for some time been one of the most cogent contributors to the essential task of revising the basic theory of psychoanalysis.  With this new book on the sources of human motivation, he has brought the field measurably closer to the accomplishment of that great joint project." - J
