Reviews
Presence and the Present: Relationship and Time in Contemporary Psychodynamic Therapy makes a truly unique contribution to the field of psychodynamic therapy. In a creative way, it combines a masterful integration of contemporary views of psychotherapy with an illuminating illustration of how a skilled clinician makes use of such an integrated approach. Dr. Stadter also breaks new ground by exploring the phenomenon of time and its relationship to psychotherapy in a most original way. Reading Presence and the Present is a valuable educational experience; one that will enhance the work of anyone engaged in the field of psychotherapy.-- -- Theodore Jacobs This is a book in a rather typical and refreshing American vein. If there is, as I think, an American school of psychoanalysis it is composed of singular authors who write from the pragmatics of experience and then find some way to connect it to one theory or another. Stadter like Giovacchini, Boyer, and others is a clinician first and the theory follows on. This grassroots writing has an honesty that is deeply sincere, intelligent, and will speak to many people who work, day to day, with their patients and in this author will find a kindred soul.-- -- Christopher Bollas Dr. Stadter's book is another critical puzzle piece in learning about the bridge between the mind and the brain. Dr. Stadter, as an expert in relational psychodynamic theory, was able to provide us with the pertinent research from the area of neuroscience supporting the psychodynamic theory. The contribution of this work to the field is significant, as we need to continue to be on the forefront of the effort to understand the workings of the human mind.-- -- Harry Gill
