"Interpersonal Psychoanalysis is by far the most distinctive and specifically American contribution to psychoanalysis. Sullivan has persuasively been described as the "Psychiatrist of America," and interpersonal psychoanalysis has clearly absorbed and exemplifies such core American values as pluralism, pragmatism, concrete experience, and interactionism. Donnel Stern and Irwin Hirsch's The Interpersonal Perspective in Psychoanalysis, 1960s-1990s: Rethinking transference and countertransference provides the most solid introduction to this unique American school and it includes a scholarly and cogent historical introduction to the overall tradition as well as to each of the vintage papers and major contributors represented. This will remain a classic collection of psychoanalytic papers for many years to come."-Lewis Aron, Ph.D., Director, New York University Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis.
