Psychoanalysis has, from its inception, been a discipline concerned
with overcoming the ill effects of certain social taboos. Given
this focus, it might be assumed that psychoanalysis and its
practitioners are free of the constraints imposed by restrictive
taboos. This book challenges this idea by examining a sampling of
the taboos that are rife in the field. It is not intended to offer
a complete summary of all of the forbidden ideas, clinical
procedures, behaviors and institutional practices in
psychoanalysis, but rather to raise consciousness about the fact
that even within a field which encourages freedom of expression,
many issues remain difficult to fully discuss both in the
consulting room and in professional discourse. The book provides a
refreshing, thoughtful, honest look at many of the taboos present
in psychoanalysis, even at this moment of greatly improved
communication between the various theoretical schools in the field.
Reading it provides a sense of freedom for the reader, as speaking
of forbidden thoughts always does.
