While giving a paper at a workshop in New York, Donna Orange commented that she had wanted to call the final book in her trilogy Other-wise to stress her focus in all three of her books on the ethical imperative to put the other first, to be wise to the other.1 Drawing on the work of Emmanuel Levinas and Primo Levi, among others, Orange challenges contemporary psychoanalysts and other humanitarian clinicians to think more deeply about what, in her mind, has typically been simplified into a facile understanding of empathy—standing in someone else's shoes.
