Contemporary Psychoanalysis, an international quarterly, is the
journal of the William Alanson White Institute and the William
Alanson White Psychoanalytic Society. It was founded in 1964 by Max
Deutscher, Ph.D. and Rose Spiegel, M.D. From its inception its
purpose has been to communicate
Interpersonal psychoanalytic perspectives on theory, development,
social issues, and practice to all who are concerned with
understanding human affairs and treating emotional difficulties. The
journal is dedicated to the spirit of mutual respect and inquiry,
and therefore also presents a wide variety of other psychoanalytic
points of view. Editor: Mark J. Blechner, Ph.D.
