Existential analysis. 2nd edition, processed. Binswanger L., Kun R.

The book sets out the method of personality analysis proposed by Ludwig Binswanger, revealing it in its entirety and uniqueness of its existence. From the rafting of the ideas of Jaspers, Husserl, Heidegger, Sartre, Buber, Kant and other Binswinger philosophers, he created a unique theory of existential analysis, a scientific tool with which one can approach a scientific understanding of “incomprehensible mental life”. Being a guide for the ideas of Heidegger and Husserl into the space of psychiatry, Binswanger builds an analysis of individual being on the ontology of abstract life, developed by Heidegger, and sees the task of entering the surface of the phenomena into the inner world of the person, so that using the phenomenological method to describe the world of a sick person, the world , extremely different from our world. Not to interpret and not try to interpret rationally, but "to grab the integrity and unity of the experience of an irrational world, born in the minds of schizophrenic, neurotic, child." Existential analysis, according to Binswanger, was born to achieve a new scientific understanding of the problems of psychiatry, psychopathology and psychotherapy. For psychologists, psychiatrists, specialists helping professions, all interested in health and illness, norms and pathology, being and nothing, problems of understanding the inner world of a person.
