""Psychoanalytic Credos is an extraordinary psychoanalytic book. Editor Jill Salberg has assembled a group of highly influential psychoanalysts who have played a major role in shaping what we think of as contemporary psychoanalytic thought. They are wonderfully candid in describing their personal journeys. Indeed, many of them are personal friends of mine, yet I found myself reading fascinating stories that I had never heard before. All describe their struggles to define what kind of analyst they would ultimately become. I was deeply moved as I heard their stories and found myself identifying with so much of what they said. This book is a must read for those who care about the future of psychoanalysis. I consider Psychoanalytic Credos one of the major contributions to our field."" —Glen O. Gabbard, MD, Author of Love and Hate in the Analytic Setting ""Psychoanalytic Credo is a beautiful and embracing book. Inviting analysts to reflect upon their evolving mission and vision, its query is located at the nexus of ethics, theory, culture, reason and faith. In welcoming commentary from diverse perspectives, international thinkers, eminent elders and from more youthful social critics, this text is both broad and deep. Salberg’s notion should be taken up by us all: let’s keep writing, reading, and teaching these credos throughout our professional lives."" —Dr. Sue Grand, faculty and supervisor at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis; a fellow at the Institute for Psychology and the Other, and a visiting scholar at the Psychoanalytic Institute for Northern California. ""Jill Salberg provides a rare opportunity to listen in as 27 psychoanalysts, spanning 5 decades, across 4 continents, share how they think about their development and work. The credos assembled here vividly convey the fashioning of psychoanalytic identities and what each analyst holds dear. A wonderful way to hear the prosody of psychoanalytic practices."" —Dodi Goldman is a Training and Supervising Analyst at the William Alanson White Institute and author of ""A Beholder’s Share: essays on Winnicott and the psychoanalytic imagination."" ""In Jill Salberg’s lovingly curated collection of credos, we have a veritable Canterbury Tales of psychoanalysis. Each voice in turn holds us in its spell as we hear of the roads these pilgrims have traveled. To accompany all twenty-seven wayfarers on their journeys spanning more than fifty years of psychoanalytic history is to witness the intergenerational transmission of ideas as well as the transmigration of souls in our field."" —Peter L. Rudnytsky, University of Florida and Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute
