=====Book Description=====
[[Image:How-to-read-lacan.jpg|300px|right]]
'The only [[thing ]] of which one can be [[guilty ]] is of having given ground relative to one's [[desire]]' Jacques [[Lacan]]
Is [[psychoanalysis ]] [[dead ]] or are we to read frequent attacks on its [[theoretical ]] 'mistakes' and [[clinical ]] 'frauds' as a proof of its vitality?
[[Slavoj Žižek]]'s passionate [[defence ]] of Lacan reasserts the [[ethical ]] urgency of psychoanalysis. Traditionally, psychoanalysis was expected to allow the [[patient ]] to overcome the obstacles which prevented access to 'normal' [[sexual ]] [[enjoyment]]; today, however, we are bombarded from all sides by different versions of the [[injunction ]] '[[Enjoy]]!' Lacan reminds us that psychoanalysis is the only [[discourse ]] in which you are allowed not to enjoy.
Since for Lacan psychoanalysis itself is a procedure of [[reading]], each chapter uses a passage from Lacan as a tool to [[interpret ]] [[another ]] [[text ]] from [[philosophy]], art or popular [[ideology]]. Lacan is read with [[Hegel ]] and [[Hitchcock]], with [[Shakespeare ]] and Dostoevsky. <!-- The How to Read series provides a context and an explanation that will facilitate and enrich your [[understanding ]] of [[texts ]] vital to the canon. These books use excerpts from the major texts to explain essential topics, such as [[Jacques Lacan]]'s core [[ideas ]] [[about ]] enjoyment, which re-created our [[concept ]] of psychoanalysis. -->
