Transference and Countertransference is a classic psychoanalytic work by Heinrich Racker that explores the central role of transference and countertransference in the analytic process.

Racker examines how the patient’s unconscious feelings and relational patterns are transferred onto the analyst, and how the analyst’s own emotional responses (countertransference) can be understood, managed, and used as a therapeutic tool. The book is regarded as an important contribution to psychoanalytic theory and technique, particularly within object relations and Freudian traditions.
