Abstract
The article discusses Celia Harding's book on the superego, which explores the relevance of this concept in contemporary analytic practice. The book is divided into three sections, covering theoretical, developmental, and clinical aspects of the superego. Various contributors examine different perspectives on the superego, including its impact on individuals' sense of self, morality, and psychic growth. The article highlights the importance of understanding and addressing the superego in therapeutic settings to promote ethical thinking and agency over one's internalized judgments.
