Makari and Fisher: Broadening and Deepening our Discipline
N. Szajnberg, MD, Managing Editor
After four year’s silence following publication of his landmark “Revolution in Mind,” George Makari responds to Fisher’s incisive review. Makari’s book takes its place with Ellenberger’s history of the unconscious and the works by Peter Gay and Sander Gilman. Today, Makari focuses on the “professionalization” of psychoanalysis beginning in the 1920’s.
Both Makari and Fisher share concerns about the state of our discipline as a professional organization, both the level of discussion, and concern that we move forward rather than repeat the “sins” of our forefathers (and foremothers, such as Ms. Freud and Ms. Klein). Frattarolli in an earlier piece, wrote about the conflict inherent in psychoanalysis, a playing-out of Freud’s ambivalence about orthodoxy and heresy. In a presentation of her new book, The Life and Death of Psychoanalysis, Jamieson Webster argues that such life-death struggles and pessimism may be inherent in the nature of our discipline. (The author will be interviewed by Frank Baudry at NYPSI Tuesday evening, February 27.)
The function of IP.net in part is to enliven thoughtful discussion. Makari’s and Fisher’s essays about a discipline for which they are both concerned captures this atmosphere. Please join in.

The “”God of Daniel S.”” is, of course, Yahweh; but this book is not so much the story of the God of the Jews as it is the story of the search of Daniel S.–a fictive American Jew–for his identity. Using Daniel as his protagonist, the author Continue reading Review of God of Daniel S. by Alan Miller
