Opis

Is psychoanalysis a 'Jewish' science? Ten essays, by the editor and other distinguished scholars, explore the 'Jewishness' of psychoanalysis, its origins in Jewish culture of the late 19th century, Freud's Jewishness, and that of his colleagues. The contributors also seek to demonstrate what the psychoanalytic approach can contribute to the study of Judaism.
