The Reach of the Mind

Mark Solms
2007 IFPE Hans W. Loewald Memorial Award
In the creative spirit of IFPE, the 2007 conference "The Reach of the Mind" invites you to an exploration of the mind in psychoanalytic thought, practice and human relationships. When we become inclusive of both the science and art of psychoanalysis, the dialogue is enriched both by the historical and current wide range of discourses.
