Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Attention Seeking, by Adam Phillips. 

'Everything depends on what, if anything, we find interesting: on what we are encouraged and educated to find interesting, and what we find ourselves being interested in despite ourselves. There is our official curiosity and our unofficial curiosity (and psychoanalysis is a story about the relationship between the two)....'  

Based on three connected talks on the subject of attention, this audiobook from Adam Phillips is a fascinating and memorable introduction to the nature and the uses of our attention....

Very interesting

This is an interesting book about psychoanalysis and its use of attention or the lack of it.
