Sex Now, Talk Later

Diary of a Fallen Psychoanalyst
'Psychoanalysts have long been aware of the fact that extraordinary intelligence and alarming corruption can co-exist in the same individual. However, the case of Masud Khan is truly extraordinary. He combined erudition and charm with thoroughgoing contempt. The psychoanalytic profession owes a deep debt of gratitude to Steven Kuchuck and Linda Hopkins, who systematically collected Khan's papers so that we can study them for ourselves.' Glen O. Gabbard, MD, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Baylor College of Medicine 'These beautifully edited Work Books offer a rare glimpse into the mind of a complicated psychoanalyst. We have much to learn from Khan about how to be a human being and, moreover, how not to be.” Professor Estela V.

One theorem started it all: From treespeak to famous numbers, E-bok

If you love mathematics, would like to be a part of the treespeak community, are otherwise interested in mathematical trees and beautiful symbolic representations, or would like to know something about pi, Euler's number, Collatz conjecture or possibly controversial mathematics, then this book is for you!
