Dear Colleagues:
As we enjoy the warm hiatus in between blizzards in the northeast, please turn your attention at least part of the weekend to the international psychoanalytic website. There is a large variety of posts this week, ranging from most research on the brain back to the atom bomb WWII. The announcements this week are numerous and I will not emphasize any, but please note them. As usual I will list the posts that caught my eye and recommend that you chose all that follow your interests.
My choices are:
1) A straight forward description of Freud’s and Jung’s theories and differences in the Audio/Video Category should be of interest. Please view ” You can take away a man’s gods but only to give him others in return ”

VI. Donations to InternationalPsychoanalysis.net
Internationanalpsychoanalysis.net has flourished in a remarkable way since it was launched in January 2007. It has become both an archive and a news source.
One of the serendipitous outgrowths of its presence and has been that we have even more reasons to experience ourselves as a community with a history, elders, anniversaries, anecdotes, a paper trail, photos and relics of our founders *** and evidence of our on-going growth and adaptation to a very changed therapeutic world.
But the growth has outpaced the cottage and one computer.
Are you able to contribute to the cost of our widening scope?
We will use contributions to internationalpsychoanalysis.net to scan and transcribe papers, search archives, find photographs format documents and upload recordings and videos. It is labor intensive and for me a labor of love [but for the helpers, indeed, work]. ***

He was influenced in ***
