The memoir offers a critical examination of the North American psychoanalytic scene over the past fifty years, highlighting John Gedo's departure from the self psychology movement to advocate for a biologically based psychoanalysis. Gedo reflects on the discipline's peak, marked by academic respect, while also addressing issues of insularity and conflicts that have undermined its progress. His personal journey intertwines with a robust intellectual framework, exploring human development and psychoanalytic change, ultimately serving as a cautionary tale for the future of the field.
