FACES IN A CLOUD Intersubjectivity in Personality Theory by George E. Atwood and Robert D. Stolorow Northvale, NJ: Jason Aronson, 1993 (Original work published 1979), xiv + 210 pp., $40.00
A reissue and updating of the authors' 1979 work that uses psychobiographical analysis of Freud, Jung, Reich, and Rank to demonstrate that personality theory is subject to the influence of the subjective world of the theorist. It underlines how relevant this work is for today. Highly recommended.
THE PSYCHOANALYTIC STUDY OF THE CHILD Volume 48 edited by Albert J. Solnit, Peter B. Neubauer, Samuel Abrams and A. Scott Dowling New Haven, CT: Yale University Press, 1993, viii + 408 pp., $55.00
This 48th volume of PSC begins with a tribute to the late George S. Moran and is divided into three groups of papers on theory, development and clinical problems, and applied psychoanalysis. Of special note are papers by Moshe Halevi Spiro on Lacan's concept of the unfixed analytic hour, by Marshall Edelson on his method of teaching psychotherapy that involves the telling and enacting of stories, and by Lyle L. Warner on the family romance in George Eliot's Daniel Deronda. But this is only to mention a few of the almost 20 well written and well edited papers that makes PSC an annual treat for psychoanalysts whether they practice child analysis or not.
