Sure to spark discussion among laymen and professionals alike!\u003c\/strong\u003eIn an interesting mix of personal history and Freud's psychoanalytic theories, Dr. Nersessian, a fifty-year veteran of the field, describes his journey as a psychoanalytic practitioner, theoretician and educator. In doing so, he highlights what he views as the problematic status of psychoanalytic theory today; while acknowledging the benefits of psychoanalysis or psychotherapy, he seriously questions the theoretical foundations of Freud's work. Dr. Nersessian is an internationally known and highly respected member of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute, and a Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical School who has held many important positions, both at his institute, at the American Psychoanalytic Association, and at the International Psychoanalytic Association. As the cofounder of the journal \u003cem\u003eNeuropsychoanalysis, \u003c\/em\u003e he was an early advocate for reconciliation of psychoanalytic and scientific thought. He is also the founder and director of the \"Helix Center,\" which provides a forum for high level interdisciplinary discussions.\u003cstrong\u003eThe prominent neuroscientist and psychoanalyst Dr. Cristina Alberini writes the following about the book: \u003c\/strong\u003e \"A brilliant, easy-to-read, and provocative book by . . . a prominent psychoanalyst, psychiatrist, and superb clinician, points to the elephant in the room and challenges key aspects of psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice.
