On Loving and Hating; on Art and Neuroscience and on wisdom: An interview with Eric Kandel
Eric Kandel articulates the binding dilemma of Vienna, echoing Peter Gay’s memoir, entitled, “My German Problem.”
Kandel begins: “I really like the city of Vienna. I like its art, its music and its architecture. In short, I like the culture that Vienna represents.

Textbook of Psychoanalysis
Click here to read about Dr. Jack Drescher’s book Textbook of Psychoanalysis from The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease.
The Textbook of Psychoanalysis could easily be subtitled Just About Anything You Wanted to Know About Psychoanalysis but Were Afraid to Ask.
