Muriel Dimen (ed.), "With Culture in Mind: Psychoanalytic Stories" (Routledge, 2011)

Summary

What's culture got to do with psychoanlaysis? According to Muriel Dimen and Stephen Hartman, a whole lot. Dimen, editor of With Culture in Mind: Psychoanalytic Stories (Routledge, 2011), and Hartman, a contributor to the same, note that "culture is always already there." Therefore culture and the clinic cannot be two separate places but must be, as our guests say, "interimplicated," or folded together. With their diverse academic backgrounds, Dimen and Hartmen are the perfect pair to explain just how they are so folded and why it matters to psychoanalytic practitioners.
