"No
matter how many psychoanalytic journals you already subscribe to, you
will find something new, different, and stimulating in Psychoanalytic
Perspectives. The journal, in its young life, has already shown
itself to be innovative in format and content, offering a reading experience
that is fresh, unique, and eclectic."
-- Neil Altman, Ph.D.
“With so many psychoanalytic journals available, and at a
time of crisis for psychoanalysis, why would anyone launch a new psychoanalytic
journal? Psychoanalytic Perspectives has burst upon the scene
just when we need it most. Breaking down old barriers and disciplinary
boundaries, fostering an openness of spirit and a fresh approach to
original writing and creative theoretical integration, Psychoanalytic
Perspectives sets a new tone for respectful conversation, psychoanalytic
scholarship, interdisciplinary exchange, and professional education.
A must-read for the contemporary student and clinician."
-- Lewis Aron, Ph.D.
"Psychoanalytic Perspectives manifests a unique and
engagingly authentic personality that I expect will delight and enlighten
its readers for years to come. The content selection, though far-ranging
and diverse, is not arbitrary or capricious, but reflective of an innovative
vision and deep sense of purpose that embraces psychoanalytic thinking,
social consciousness, and creative expression.”
-- Philip Bromberg, Ph.D.

"Psychoanalytic Perspectives is innovative in its
vision and presentation. It focuses on multiple perspectives of cutting-edge
issues in psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice and addresses
the application of psychoanalytic ideas to social, political, and spiritual
issues as well. Adding interviews of prominent authors and poetry and
prose provide personal and creative dimensions. The unique combination
of scholarship, creativity, and dialogue make this a riveting read.
As a co-founder of NIP-TI, I am proud of this journal and have great
respect for my colleagues at NIP-TI who made it happen."
-- James L. Fosshage, Ph.D.
"By focusing on the analytic exploration of social and political,
as well as clinical, issues, Psychoanalytic Perspectives expands
the range of our knowledge in a most valuable way. As a fresh, new voice
in American psychoanalysis, it is a most welcome addition to our field."
-- Theodore Jacobs, M.D.
"It was very exciting to read the inaugural issue of Psychoanalytic
Perspectives. It certainly fostered my 'openness, playfulness and
creativity'…There was a wealth of fascinating, clinically relevant
detail…written in a clear, succinct style with the minimum of
obfuscating jargon."
-- Glenys Lobban, Ph.D.
"The
'Poetry by People in Analysis' section of Psychoanalytic Perspectives
(Vol. 3 #1, Fall/Winter 2005) made for a remarkable issue. To my knowledge,
there has been nothing like it in a journal in the history of our field.
Each of the poems is interesting in its own right. I am sure my favorites
will change over time. I keep the issue on my desk and read a poem now
and again. You are a real pioneer in expanding the domain of what is
'psychoanalysis.'"
-- Thomas Ogden, M.D.
“I found [Psychoanalytic Perspectives] compelling
and highly readable. I enjoyed the high quality of writing and the obviously
high quality of editing that went into this issue…This publication
can make a significant contribution to the literature of psychotherapy."
-- Louis R. Ormont, Ph.D.
