Sigmund Freud evolved his theories throughout his lifetime. This
entailed many revisions and changes which he himself never tried to
standardise rigidly into a definitive conceptual system. The need
for some sort of a reliable guide which would spell out both the
pattern of the evolution of Freud's thinking, as well as establish
its inherent logic, was felt for a long time by both scholars and
students of psychoanalysis. Drs Laplanche and Pontalis of the
Association Psychanalytique de France succeeded admirably in
providing a dictionary of Freud's concepts which is more than a
compilation of mere definitions. After many years of creative and
industrious research, they were able to give an authentic account
of the evolution of each concept with pertinent supporting texts
from Freud's own writing (in the Standard Edition translation), and
thus have endowed us with an instrument for work and research which
is characterised by its thoroughness, exactitude and lack of
prejudice towards dogma. The Language of Psychoanalysis is an
established classic that will long continue to be of invaluable use
to both the student and the research-worker in psychoanalysis.

"In Haiti Haitii?" Jean-Bertrand Aristide combines the artistry of
Swahili with the poetic incisiveness of his native Kreyol to
produce an eloquent, resounding negation to colonialism and
slavery, as well as an emphatic affirmation of freedom, liberty,
equality, and fraternity. Aristide writes in poetry, prose,
proverbs, and aphorisms to tell the epic story of the life and
freedom affirming spirit of Haiti, the world s first independent
Black republic. He chronicles slavery through a recitation of the
brutality of the colonisers and the often mundane and trivial ways
in which they attempted to dehumanize Haitians, positioning the
reader in the place of the human beings who were at the receiving
end of such inhumanity. Aristide eloquently illustrates how
Haitians 300-year journey to freedom was illuminated by the African
philosophy of Ubuntu, a world view that embodies human solidarity,
respect, dignity, justice, liberty, and love. In this philosophy,
Africans found an unmatched strength to resist slavery. Today, he
writes, it is this same philosophy that can empower a new
generation of Africans worldwide to resist neo-colonialism. "
Over the last few years, the O.J. Simpson case, then the
Lewinsky-Clinton affair, and scores of minor scandals have
dominated the US press, often taking precedence over important
domestic and international issues. This tabloidization of the news
media, both here and abroad, has proved that "the market" cannot
insure media quality. In a democracy, for media to function well,
they must be free of both political and economic muzzling. The only
solution is to add self-regulation, or quality control, by
professionals and public to the other two forces, the market and
state regulation. In this controversial volume, Claude-Jean
Bertrand sets out to define a set of accountability
systems--democratic, efficient, and harmless--to insure true
freedom and quality of media. This brief, highly literate volume
focuses not on philosophical foundations of media ethics or case
stories, but on what is now missing in the codes. Many books deal
with media ethics but few deal with accountability. Media Ethics
and Accountability Systems zeroes in on the many nongovernmental
methods of enforcing "quality control," and on the difficulty of
getting the media microcosm to accept such accountability. To
remedy this lack, Bertrand proposes rethinking existing "media
accountability systems," some 30 to 40 in number, and creation of
new ones. He observes that existing systems are rooted in four
basic approaches: training: the education of citizens in media use
and the incorporation of ethics courses in journalistic education;
evaluation: criticism (positive and negative) not only from
politicians, consumerists, and intellectuals, but from media
professionals themselves; monitoring: by independent, academic
experts over extended periods of time into the long-term effects;
and feedback: giving ear to the various segments of media users and
their needs and tastes, rather than scrutinizing sales and ratings.
Media Ethics will be of particular interest to academics in the
fields of communication and journalism, as well as to the general
reader with an interest in public issues and a civic concern for
society.
