Katherine Mansfield and Psychology is written by Gerri Kimber and published by Edinburgh University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1474417566 (ISBN 10) and 9781474417563 (ISBN 13).

In line with the recent surge of critical interest in early psychology, the contributors read Mansfield's work alongside figures like William James and Henri Bergson, opening up new perspectives on affect in her work. While these essays trace strands within the intellectual milieu in which Mansfield came of age, others explore the intricate interplay between Mansfield's fiction and Freudian theory, seeing her work as emblematic of the uncanny doubling of modernist literature and psychoanalysis.
