Here, for the first time, is a book that submits the psychoanalytic
training institute to deep anthropological scrutiny. It expertly
uncovers the hidden institutional devices used to transform
trainees into professionals. By attending closely to what trainees
feel, do, and think as they struggle towards professional status,
it exposes the often subtle but deeply penetrating effects
psychoanalytic training has upon all who pass through it; effects
that profoundly shape not only therapists (professionally and
personally), but also the community itself. The author's
fascinating and original data is culled from his extensive
fieldwork, his case-studies of clinical work, and his interviews
with teachers, senior practitioners and trainees. This book is
written to be accessible to all those who have an interest in the
therapeutic profession from the professional (whether
psychotherapist or anthropologist) to the trainee and general
reader.
