If one has not fought for one's life, then one may not know what it is to have a real life.
- Bernard W. Bail, M.D.
Dr Bernard W. Bail is a physician, a psychoanalyst and a training analyst who lives and practices in Beverly Hills, California. For his military service
during World War II, he received the Distinguished Service Cross, three Distinguished Flying Crosses, five Air Medals, five Battle Stars in the European Theater of Operations, a Purple Heart, and a Prisoner of War Medal. In addition, the French government awarded him the French Légion d'honneur, the highest military honour bestowed by France.
Dr Bail is a member of the International Psychoanalytical Association and the American
Psychoanalytic Association where he chairs the ongoing discussion group "Infant Mental Life and the Dream in Psychoanalysis." Through his intensive work in the unconscious via the dream, Dr Bail developed a new paradigm for psychoanalysis centred at the beginning of human life, which he describes in his book "The Mother's Signature: A Journal of Dreams" (catalogue no. 26033).
