What is thinking but the courage to work alone developing concepts that are lasting because they grow out of a living relationship to a subject matter.

Here assembled by his student and friend, the psychiatrist Jon Lewis, some of the essential papers unpublished in Beckers lifetime. The range is great: from Female Delinquency to Jonestown.
