| Extra Info | : | Eminent psychoanalyst Ronald Britton examines the position of psychoanalysis on a conceptual axis which puts physical and mental at opposite ends of a continuum - one which as yet does not meet in the middle. Currently the neurosciences are approaching from one end of this continuum and the mental sciences from the other. In discussion with Peter Hobson, Professor of Developmental Psychopathology at University College London, Dr Britton will explore the idea that psychoanalysis operates in the uncharted middle ground, studying mental life in much the same way as Darwin studied natural history before it was able to join up with the new science of the biology laboratory.
