'This exciting volume is a rich interdisciplinary collection, exploring ethics and engaging its readers in a profound dialogue between philosophy and psychoanalysis regarding human vulnerability, suffering and boundedness. The Ethical Turn features a group of prominent scholars and clinicians who represent diverse entry points and create a cutting edge, moving, and at times surprising conversation.' - Galit Atlas, Ph.D. Author, The Enigma of Desire: Sex, Longing, and Belonging in Psychoanalysis 'David Goodman and Eric Severson have produced a discussion of ethics and psychoanalysis that is both wide-ranging and deep. Such a book with its attunement to the importance and subtleties of ethical turns, with its commitment to relational thinking and to attention to the suffering other could not appear at a more crucial time in our field and in the world. Many illustrious speakers and new voices explore a wide variety of topics in regard to patients, analysts, techniques, politics, history and theory. This will be a book to read, a book to teach from and a beacon in our determination in psychoanalysis to work mindful of the 'other', in the world and in ourselves.' - Adrienne Harris, New York University 'David Goodman and Eric Severson, in this edited volume, have succeeded in uniquely augmenting, explicating, and providing rationale for the ethical turn that is transforming psychoanalytic, philosophical and theological discourse. The volume's gaze is focused on the Other , an Other who is seen as partner in the discovery of meaning through co-created passions and rationalities. The shared courage of the authors causes the volume to press into previously unrecognized or newly rediscovered vistas, rendering this interdisciplinary work of great import for those who value the quest for ethical relating in a world so needful of such inquiries.' - Marie Hoffman, Ph.D., New York University, Brookhaven Institute for Psychoanalysis and Christian Theology
