Inspired by the clinical and ethical contributions of Muriel Dimen,
Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble goes beyond the
established consensus that sexual boundary violations (SBV)
constitute a serious breach of professional ethics, in order to
explore the cultural and historical implications of their chronic
persistence. In Rotten Apples and Ambivalence, her last major
publication, Dimen (2016) maintained that "the phenomenon of sexual
transgression between analyst and patient . . . is insufficiently
addressed so long as it is only deemed psychological." In
responding to and developing Dimen's argument, the distinguished
contributors to this volume bring the discussion of SBV to a new
level of ethical rigor and depth, challenging the psychoanalytic
profession to go beyond its codified complacency. This collection
shatters normative professional guidelines by focusing on the
complicity and hypocrisy of professional groups, while at the same
time raising the taboo subject of the ordinary practicing
clinician's unconscious professional ambivalence and potentially
"rogue" sexual subjectivity. Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary
Trouble uncovers the roots of SBV in the institutional origins and
history of psychoanalysis as a profession. Exploring Dimen's
concept of the psychoanalytic "primal crime," which is in some ways
constitutive of the profession, and the inherently unstable nature
of interpersonal and professional "boundaries," Social Aspects of
Sexual Boundary Trouble breaks new ground in the continuing
struggle of psychoanalysis to reconcile itself with its liminal
social status and its origins as a subversive, morally ambiguous
practice. It will be highly relevant to specialists in
psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, critical theory, feminist studies
and social thought.

Inspired by the clinical and ethical contributions of Muriel Dimen
(1942-2016), a prominent feminist anthropologist and relational
psychoanalyst, Sexual Boundary Trouble in Psychoanalysis challenges
the established psychoanalytic and mental health consensus about
the sources and appropriate management of sexual boundary
violations (SBVs). Gathering contributions from an exciting range
of analysts working at the cutting edge of the field, this book
shatters normative professional guidelines by focusing on the
complicity and hypocrisy of professional groups, while at the same
time raising for the first time the taboo subject of the ordinary
practicing clinician's unconscious professional ambivalence and

The concept of identity is one of the most important ideas the
social sciences have investigated in recent years, yet no
introductory textbooks are available to those who want to gain a
sense of this burgeoning field. The first of its kind, this text
provides an introduction to the scientific study of identity
formation, with a focus on youth development. The analyses of the
problems and prospects faced by contemporary young people in
forming identities are placed in the context of societies that
themselves are in transition, further complicating identity
formation and the interrelated processes of self development and
moral-ethical reasoning. In order to sort through what is now a
vast literature on the various aspects of human identity, this book
introduces the Simplified Identity Formation Theory. This theory
cuts through much of the academic jargon that limits the
accessibility of this promising field, and builds an understanding
of human identity from first principles. This book is optimized for
students and instructors, featuring several useful pedagogical
tools and a robust series of online resources: Primer format: the
text synthesizes the vast and disparate literature that has
characterized the field of Identity Studies, with a focus on
identity formation during the transition to adulthood; theory and
research is discussed in plain, non-technical language, using the
author's new Simplified Identity Formation Theory. In-text
pedagogy: to enhance student engagement, box insert and in-text
examples from current events, popular culture, and social media are
incorporated throughout the text; key terms are in bold in each
chapter and combined in a glossary at the end of the text. Online
resources for instructors: A robust set of resources that, when
combined with the text, provides a complete blueprint for designing
an identity course; resources include PowerPoint Presentations,
test bank, sample syllabi, and instructor manuals for both
face-to-face and online courses that include weekly written
assignment questions and discussion-forum questions along with
essay topic ideas and grading rubrics. Online resources for
students: a student manual, flashcards, practice quizzes, and
exercises with video links.

In the late 1970s legendary pianist Bill Evans was at the peak of
his career. He revolutionized the jazz trio (bass, piano, drums) by
giving each part equal emphasis in what jazz historian Ted Gioia
called a "telepathic level" of interplay. It was an ideal
opportunity for a sideman, and after auditioning in 1978, Joe La
Barbera was ecstatic when he was offered the drum chair, completing
the trio with Evans and bassist Marc Johnson.In Times Remembered,
La Barbera and co-author Charles Levin provide an intimate
fly-on-the-wall peek into Evans's life, critical recording
sessions, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes of life on the road. Joe
regales the trio's magical connection, a group that quickly gelled
to play music on the deepest and purest level imaginable. He also
watches his dream gig disappear, a casualty of Evans's historical
drug abuse when the pianist dies in a New York hospital emergency
room in 1980. But La Barbera tells this story with love and
respect, free of judgment, showing Evans's humanity and uncanny
ability to transcend physical weakness and deliver first-rate
performances at nearly every show.
