I love your book, but I don’t love your book. This is exactly what I’m trying to discuss. Khaya: Although I’ve read many other books on therapy which I found exceedingly helpful. So I’m not sure the problem is all me.

I love your book, but I don’t love your book. Khaya: Uh, aren’t you defining a double bind a bit broadly? I mean, why is it a double bind if I say that I liked An Imagined Interview with Mony Elkaim, conducted by Khaya, a novice psychologist: Khaya: Dr. Elkaim, before I discuss some of the criticisms I have of your book, I want to say that I really loved the first page.

and I would add, unfortunately so, as it is an amazing and extremely rich work, important both in its theoretical implications and in its purely practical side.

At the heart of Elkaim's technique is self-reference.

  • This is to my knowledge the only translated text of book-length by French family therapist Mony Elkaim. and I would add, unfortunately so, as it is an amazing and extremely rich work, important both in its theoretical implications and in its purely practical side. Elkaim was a close friend of Guattari's, through whom I came across his name (Guattari mentions him in his Three Ecologies). in fact, the final chapter of the book is a roundtable discussion between Elkaim, Guattari, Stengers, and Prigogine, on the relations between the natural sciences, analysis and the social.
    roughly, Elkaim's theories can be traced to the work of precisely the chemist Prigogine, Chilean biologists Varela and Maturana, and Felix Guattari. from Guattari he borrows concepts such as assemblages, resonance, and others; from the other three, ideas of self-references and self-organizing systems. just as in nature matter exhibits an enormous capacity of self-organization, i.e. the attainment of internal consistency without transcendental models, so also Elkaim, in his work, is trying to unblock desiring impasses in the self-referencial relationship between therapist and families. at stake here is not the attainment of truth, but the opening up of new possibilities, often for the therapist also. and even if language is the primary mode of communication, it functions not so much through the elaboration of meaning, but rather by creating ruptures in established significations and codified modes of behavior. in other words, by creating a-signifying breaks, as Guattari would say.
    the text is highly original and at the same time accessible, and can shed additional light both on non-traditional methods of theorization (bridging the gap between the human and the natural sciences) and of practical work (opting for experimental meta-modelization, rather than for dogmatic models). also, in contrast to Guattari, where one rarely finds practical cases of treatment, at least in teh English translations, Elkaim's book provides a dozen of these, with consequent theoretical elaborations.
    overall, a highly recommendable book!
