The scientific sessions of the Midwinter Meeting of THE ACADEMY OF PSYCHOANALYSIS were held on December 5-6, 1959, at the Hotel Roosevelt in New York City. The theme of the first day's meeting was Psychoanalytic Concepts in Allied Fields. Harold Lasswell, Ph.D., spoke on the implications of psychoanalysis for political science; Weston La Barre, Ph.D., on its implications for anthropology, and Talcott Parsons, Ph.D., on the implications for social science. The following day a series of clinical papers was presented by members of the Academy.
