My choices this week dovetail with current happenings, as always, so I begin with:

1) The developmental complexities suggested by in-depth account of the analytic treatment of an adult transgender analysand are astounding when we consider traditional view of the body in psychoanalysis – the Continue reading Bob Dylan, Maya Angelou, L.

Durochercoverfinal

If you have not seen Lawrence Levinson’s superb review of the fun coming of age novel by Theodore Jacobs, here are some quotes from that review. The book can be obtained on request from IPBooks.net: by Clicking Here.
