Psychopharmacology
A session with psychoanalyst Jamieson Webster The Psychopharmacology of Everyday Life Jamieson Webster *On the NYR Daily this week* On Monday, we published “The Psychopharmacology of Everyday Life”—or, as its author, the psychoanalyst Jamieson Webster, joked was her alternative title, “Freud’s Brain on Drugs.” The argument of her long essay is, in essence, that modern psychiatry prescribes a pill for every mental ill without treating the underlying causes of what ails us—and that talking cures merit another look.

mind-body problem
Greg Batmarx Brain Issues 20 de nov de 2018 Why is my awareness here, while yours is over there? Why is the universe split in two for each of us, into a subject and an infinity of objects?
