Contemporary psychoanalysis is a co-creative activity that heals psychological suffering at its core. This memoir by Bhaskar Sripada gives us an intimate glimpse into this process. Psychoanalytic ideas and their real-life applications are presented masterfully in this story about a healing human connection. It will educate and entertain all those interested in learning about psychoanalysis today.

Like Captain Kirk, Dr. Sripada boldly goes where no analyst has gone before. While elaborating on his own history, emotions, and feelings, he takes us with him on his journey of successfully analyzing a patient lured to the very edge of suicide.
