Seducing NPAP Unbelievers, Will and Tracy at NPAP

Seducing NPAP Unbelievers, Will and Tracy, TOMORROW, SUNDAY 6:30 pm

Just a reminder tomorrow Sunday 6:30 pm at NPAP so proud to present Will and Tracy. Please do come to see them exhort, mobilize and libidinize in a presentation on bringing psychoanalysis to the world – offensively (as in not defensively), passionately, on its own terms, not translated into CBT, DBT but in its own tongue (if there is such a thing) through an activist sensibility. Please come, your energy and presence will make a difference.

The Program Committee and The Public Relations Committee
of the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis Invite you to consider
The Couch in the World: Or, Seducing Unbelievers: Psychoanalytic Interventions in the Public Sphere

Chicago, Heidegger, autism, global warming and mental life of plants from Sasha Rolde on IP.net

Dear Colleagues,

with apologies for having temporarily suspended writing for 3 weeks due to various unforeseen circumstances, I return, along with the balmy spring weather and sunshine on the east coast, to update you on the latest posts on the international psychoanalytic website. I hope that you have at least scanned it during my silence. The world has not stood still, nor has the activity on the website. As usual, I will give you my favorites followed by the regular list of contents. I have not gone back all the weeks I missed, hence some of the political posts (Sarajevo, etc.) are missing. If interested, please do look them up.

My choices this week are:

1) The Dim Sum of the CAPA group at the Chicago meetings deserves your attention!
