Psychoanalysis is the only science which isn’t thrown by the object of its
inquiry deliberately trying to deceive the investigator. The importance of lying
and the need for us all to lie lies, so to speak, at the very heart of
psychoanalysis. John Forrester addresses this issue in Truth Games, which is as
much about philosophy and sociology as it is about psychiatry. Published by
Harvard University Press, £15.50/$22.95, ISBN 0674539621.
