Reviews

The Brain, the Mind, and The Self: A Psychoanalytic Roadmap, Arnold Goldberg, who over the past half century has been one of the liveliest and most penetrating minds in psychoanalysis grapples with the curious, complicated and confusing relations between psychoanalysis, psychiatry, and neuroscience. What is the relation of the mind to the brain, psychopharmacology to psychotherapy, psychiatry to psychoanalysis? How ought we to think of the Self? Is psychoanalysis primarily a method of treating emotional distress and disfunction or a form of inquiry whose end is knowledge? Which patients do best with which sorts of treatment and how are mental health professionals trained to decide? At a time marked by widening gaps in understanding between mental health professionals and between mental health professionals and people seeking treatment, Goldberg provides a brilliant and illuminating guide to the perplexed. - Jeffrey Stern, Ph.D., Faculty, Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis, President of the Chicago Psychoanalytic Society, Associate Editor of The Annual of Psychoanalysis.
