A tribute to Shmuel Erlich for his eightieth birthday, this volume explores and challenges anew psychoanalytic thought, practice, and education. Erlich's "internal dialogue with my own knowing and unknowing" has informed his own analytic creativity and inspired the many distinguished analysts who have contributed to this book. Its wide range of topics include clinical work, culture, training analysis, group process, etc. All readers seriously interested in psychoanalysis will discover gems within this rewarding festschrift.

This book, dedicated to Shmuel Erlich by his friends in Israel and abroad, is a unique treasure of essays and an opportunity to partake in a bird's-eye view of the search for knowledge by an assemblage of prominent psychoanalysts from all over the world.
The body of knowledge we are presented with is many-colored yet built on a common base of traditional psychoanalysis. It is thrilling and inspiring to see the various roads which free and original thinking can take from a common base - both in the Israeli Society where Shmuel Erlich is an active and influential member, and in Europe and America, where his contribution to psychoanalysis is highly appreciated.
