Dear Colleagues,
As summer turns to fall and the US elections are overtaking the news and the economists threaten a downward turn, the international psychoanalytic website continues to reflect our world with its ups and downs giving it a professional slant that we should be proud of.
My own choices this week are:
1) Timon & Hamlet ? Who/What is Timon? Did you know that Shakespeare wrote Timon ? a little known, rarely mentioned & possibly unfinished tragedy ? nicely compared & contrasted with Hamlet from the psychological, political and social point of view in a posting this week. Well worth reading.

2) There are a number of post on child abuse (and more than*) including the Syrian children?s ?horror stories? where recovery may be a distant dream, to ?how child molesters get away with it?

3) City within a City ? a new book on what we have become accustomed to think of as the ?good? in the good & bad category. In my opinion, we need to learn about and apply our analytic understanding to this type of extraordinary heroism.

4) The Science News contains 2 cautionary posts on now very common ways that influence our brain ? antipsychotic drugs and mobile technology ? please read.
