He leads us through mathematics, philosophy, religion, and, naturally, psychoanalysis into an entirely new way of interpreting the two most fundamental human drives. Long anticipated by English-speaking readers, this annotated translation presents Lacan's most sophisticated work on love and desire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLacan, Jacques:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - The psychoanalyst \u003cstrong\u003eJacques Lacan\u003c\/strong\u003e (1901-1981) was one of the twentieth century's most influential thinkers.
