Serge Lebovici
The Baby, the Psychoanalyst and the Metaphor Presented by Bernard Golse

It particularly shows why this notion constitutes the keystone of psychic ontogenesis and of all therapeutic activity. A psychoanalyst, and professor of child and adolescent psychology, Serge Lebovici was the president of the International Psychoanalytical Society.
