Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Jewish Thought
Demonstrating the connections between contemporary psychoanalysis, Jewish thought and Jewish history, this volume is a significant contribution to the traditions of dialogue, debate and change-within-continuity that epitomize these disciplines. The authors of this volume explore the cross-disciplinary connections between psychoanalysis and Jewish thought, while seeking out the resonance of new meanings, to exemplify the uncanny similarities that exist between ancient Rabbinic methods of interpretation and contemporary psychoanalytic theory and methodology, particularly the centrality of the question and the deconstruction of narrative.

Father and Child
First published in 1982. A decade ago the psychological literature contained few pieces on fathers and fathering. The father was the forgotten parent. Since then, the focus on fatherhood has intensified, with a proliferation of research studies on the subject.

This study is presented under the belief that the rich data available through psychoanalysis may provide a unique window on the evolution and vicissitudes throughout life of fatherhood and fathering from the perspectives of both parent and child.
