Abstract

Rarely is a book in honor of someone else's work a significant contribution to a field of study. On the Frontiers of Psychoanalysis and Neuroscience: Essays in Honor of Eric R. Kandel accomplishes that end. Dr. Edith Laufer, Director of the Neuropsychoanalytic Clinical Study Center of the National Psychological Association for Psychoanalysis (NPAP), does us a great service by culling the perspectives of leaders in psychoanalysis and neuroscience as to the significance of Kandel's achievements regarding the foundations of our field and clinical work. In doing so, it advances the dialogue between psychoanalysis and neuroscience.
