SelfAnalysis is a fascinating reprise on the mode of disciplined selfinquiry that gave rise to psychoanalysis. From Freud's pioneering selfanalytic efforts onward, selfanalysis has been central to psychoanalytic training and psychoanalytic practice. Yet, only in recent years have analysts turned their attention to this wellspring of Freud's creation.The contributors to SelfAnalysis represent diverse theoretical perspectives, but they share a common appreciation of the importance of selfanalysis to the analytic endeavor. Their papers encompass systematic inquiries into the capacity for selfanalysis, examples of selfanalysis as an aspect of clinical work, and personal reflections on the role of selfanalysis in professional growth. Among the questions explored: What do we mean by selfanalysis? To what extent and under what conditions is selfanalysis possible? How does it differ from ordinary introspection? What are the developmental antecedents of the capacity for selfanalysis? What is the role of the 'other' in selfanalysis? What are the relationships among selfanalysis, writing, and creativity?As Barron observes, the contributors to the book 'grapple with the formidable ambiguities of selfanalysis without either idealizing or devaluing its potential.' What emerges from their effort is not only an illuminating window into the psychoanalyst's subjectivity as a fact of clinical life, but a farreaching exemplification of the ways in which selfunderstanding is always a constitutive part of our understanding of others.
