Reviews
Among the most significant shifts in the recent history of psychoanalysis is the recognition that it is a personal, subjective, and intersubjective endeavor rather than an objective instrument applied with technical rationality by a neutral expert. This emphasis on the therapist's character and subjectivity has significant implications for psychoanalytic education and for the ongoing development of the analyst. In this inspired collection, Linda Hillman and Therese Rosenblatt have brought together a variety of clinicians whose rich and diverse narratives reflect on their personal development as analysts. The Voice of the Analyst will be of interest to all of us who love psychoanalysis and are concerned with the formation of analytic identity, and it will be essential reading for those pursuing, providing, or considering psychoanalytic training as a lifelong form of continuing professional education and personal growth. -Lewis Aron, Ph.D., Director, New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy & Psychoanalysis. This is a wonderful book! It is a treasure trove of deeply considered personal narratives, replete with insight, humanity, and modesty. The reader is transported from culture to culture, through different historical periods, fields of inquiry, and into varied economic circumstances through the stories of these twelve psychoanalysts of different ages, nationalities, and theoretical perspectives. Whether it is through the playing of a sport, or the writing of a poem or essay, or a transformational moment in a personal clinical treatment, these authors tell us how they became the psychoanalysts they are - excellently edited and integrated by Drs Hillman and Rosenblatt. It was a treat to read. -Marsha H. Levy-Warren, Ph.D., Faculty and Clinical Consultant, NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis
