Building Bridges: The Selected Psychoanalytic Papers of Helen K. Gediman, (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999596517)

I have, in this collection, placed 20 of my articles that have been previously
published separately in refereed psychoanalytic journals or as chapters in psychoanalytic
books. The papers are ordered in six "Parts," not chronologically but
according to subject matter that fits together by topic or area of interest. Each part
involves a topic that had customarily been thought of in binary terms, but may
now may now be thought of not as "either/or" theoretical and clinical issues, but
more integratively. Of utmost importance to the nature of my thinking as I put
this work together, is the fact that I had not always known that a paper developing
and arguing issues on one subject would some day turn out to be intimately and
significantly related to a paper developing and arguing issues on another subject.
It was only after the fact that I discovered the connections. But is that not
exactly how we expect our minds to preconsciously learn and then influence our
consciously grasped ideas and outcomes?
