Edinburgh & Glasgow enjoy a famously scratchy relationship. Resembling other intercity rivalries throughout the world from Madrid & Barcelona to Moscow & St. Petersburg to Beijing & Shanghai Scotland's sparring metropolises just happen to be much smaller & closer together--like twin stars orbiting a common axis. Yet their size belies their world-historical importance as cultural & commercial capitals of the British Empire & the mere forty miles between their city centers does not diminish their stubbornly individual nature. Robert Crawford dares to bring both cities to life between the covers of one book. His story of the fluctuating fortunes of each city is animated by the one-upping that has been entrenched since the eighteenth century when Edinburgh lost parliamentary sovereignty & took on its proud wistfulness while Glasgow came into its industrial promise & defiance. Using landmarks & individuals as gateways to their character & past this tale of two cities mixes novelty & familiarity just as Scotland's capital & its largest city do. Crawford gives us Adam Smith & Walter Scott the Scottish Enlightenment & the School of Art but also tiny apartments a poetry library Spanish Civil War volunteers & the nineteenth-century entrepreneur Maria Theresa Short. We see Glasgow's best-known street through the eyes of a Victorian child & Edinburgh University as it appeared to Charles Darwin. Crawford's literary detailed account affirms what people from Glasgow or Edinburgh have long doubted--that it is possible to love both cities at the same time. ...

On Learning from the Patient is concerned with the potential for psychoanalytic thinking to become self-perpetuating. Patrick Casement explores afresh the dynamics of the helping relationship
- learning to recognize how patients offer cues to the therapeutic experience that they are unconsciously in search of. Using many telling clinical examples he illustrates how through trial identification he has learned to monitor the implications of his own contributions to a session from the viewpoint of the patient. He thus shows how with the aid of this internal supervision many initial failures to respond appropriately can be remedied & even used to the benefit of the therapeutic work. By learning to distinguish better what helps the therapeutic process from what hinders it ways are discovered whereby the circularity of pre-conception can more effectively be avoided by those who aim to understand the unconscious of others. From this lively examination of key clinical issues the author comes to see psychoanalytic therapy as a process of re-discovering theory
- & developing a technique that is more specifically related to the individual patient. The dynamics illustrated here particularly the processes of interactive communication & containment occur in any helping relationship & are applicable throughout the caring professions. Patrick Casements unusually frank presentation of his own work aided by his lucid & non-technical language allows wide scope for readers to form their own ideas about the approach to technique he describes. This book together with its sequel Further Learning from the Patient will be invaluable to trainee & practising analysts or therapists & those teaching in related professions.
