“Psychosis and Extreme States, a worthy addition to the Palgrave Lacan Series. … Fimiani’s book draws heavily on their practical efforts.” (Rolf Flor, Psychoanalysis, Culture & Society, Vol. 28 (4), 2023)

“Bret Fimiani’s (2021) Psychosis and Extreme States: An Ethic for Treatment, the product of decades of research and clinical experience in the psychoanalytic treatment of the psychoses, is published at a particularly kairotic[1] moment, addressing itself more broadly to the contemporary crisis of psychoanalysis. … Fimiani has produced a rich, heterodox account of psychosis and a psychoanalytic approach to working with psychotic subjects. … The structure and style of Fimiani’s book deserve closer attention.” (Matthew Oyer, European Journal of Psychoanalysis, Vol. 10 (1), June, 2023)
