of the psychoanalytic community of the United States in the |

two books. One was a work of history titled The Legacy of Sigmund |

of empathy, to the role of the experience of déjà vu, and to the significance |

of psychoanalytic understanding of the psychology of art, literature, |

and religion. However, he is best known for the demonstration |
