Papers from a September 1997 conference, plus additional material, examine the place of research in justifying or expanding upon analytic theory. Principal contributors are Daniel Stern, whose work on infant observation is world-renowned, and AndrT Green, whose views on the limitation of research are equally well-known. Other contributors take differing viewpoints in relation to Green and Stern. Sandler was a training analyst at the British Psychoanalytical Society and past president of the International Psychoanalytical Association. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
