Before *or* after you watch the extraordinary film, "Speaking of Home," consider reading Naama Rotem's excellent review at "Psyche on Campus." (The link to the film itself--which is free to watch--can be found in the review.)

Friends: *Today* is the official release-date of my new book, PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE UNIVERSITY, and I hope that some of you will want to take a look at it--maybe review it, perhaps ask your libraries to order it for their collections, etc. (There's even a 20%-off code in the banner below.)
