We must also turn a critical eye to the bias and pre-conceptions we all hold. Do we, for example, see the arc of our history as progressive? Regressive? Do some developments in our history function as “correctives”? And most important for our everyday Continue reading The History of Psychoanalysis with Thomas Wolman, M.D. at NYPSI
