John C. Nemiah, M.D., is Professor of Psychiatry, Emeritus, at Harvard Medical School and Professor of Psychiatry at Dartmouth Medical School, Hanover, New Hampshire, where he is actively engaged in the supervision of psychiatric residents.
An interesting and unusual book that attempts to throw light on a
difficult aspect of psychotherapeutic work and which would be of
interest to the practicing medical and non-medical psychotherapist
as well as to the interested general psychiatrist.--Journal of
Psychosomatic Research
Beyond Transference raises many difficult and important issues. It
is a practical and useful book for therapists, including
psychiatrists, psychiatric residents, and others.... I recommend
this book and hope that it will stimulate further thought and
research toward building a scientific base for our clinical
hunches.--Hospital and Community Psychiatry
