Dear Colleagues,
Although the summer weather invites outdoor activities, I hope that the long July 4th weekend will afford an opportunity for you ( especially given the stormy weather today) to read the posts on the international psychoanalytic website. There is an unusual number of entries this week and I had a difficult time choosing a some over others but as usual, I have picked out a few posts that interested me and have listed them below, followed by the entire list of contents. I continue to be amazed at the relevance of the posts to the current world political and social situation. Our profession gives us a perspective that we need to spread into society to have an impact.
My choices:
1) I am struck by the upcoming announcement: Totem and Taboo After Auschwitz with Betty Fuks at Aprss-Coup’ The theme is as relevant today as it was then; try to attend.
