In this chapter we describe one of the major developments that has occurred, since Freud's death, in the branch of neuroscience out of which psychoanalysis arose. We believe that this development provides a method by means of which psychoanalysis can be rejoined with neuroscience in a way that is compatible with Freud's basic assumptions.
In 1922, a young Russian psychologist wrote to Freud to apply for formal recognition of a new psychoanalytic society he had formed in the city of Kazan. This man was Aleksandr Romanovich Luria.1
