Autor

Ellen Pinsky is the author of Mortal Gifts (2017), described by one reviewer as "[a] book to be read alongside Freud's Papers on Technique." Her writing about psychoanalysis and her clinical work have been enriched by years of experience as a middle school English teacher. Michael Slevin draws from his experience as a psychoanalyst and journalist to find fresh perspectives on psychoanalytic ideas. He recently co-edited The Trauma of Racism: Lessons from the Therapeutic Encounter (2023), which was heralded as a "humanistic approach to the problem of racial oppression".
