Available for Preorder: Conversations: Selected Papers of Arnold D. Richards Volume 6
$35.00
Dr. Arnold Richards is a towering figure in psychoanalysis: a consummate clinician, revered educator, prolific author, legendary editor, and original thinker. Volume 6 of his selected papers cull these distinguishing contributions to the field with interviews, book reviews, commentaries and autobiography. As psychoanalysis is rooted in dialogue—listening and speaking—this volume is aptly based in conversations: sometimes Dr. Richards is the interviewer or interviewee, sometimes a reviewer or reviewee. This makes for an exceptional volume that is both conversational and true to life. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning about this exceptional psychoanalyst and his work.”

“I’ve been fascinated by Arnold Richards’s collected papers and memoir since the beginning. He was an influential presence in the history of both the “orthodox” American Psychoanalytic Associations, and the heretical ones. Equally fascinating and enviable are his personal reminiscences of encounters with other psychoanalysts. I am particularly fond that Dr. Richards also wrote about two men whom I myself admired and learned from: Otto Isakower, my beloved teacher, and Aldous Huxley, one of the literary greats.”
