Biography
Jean-Michel Quinodoz is a psychoanalyst in private practice in Geneva. He is Training Analyst of the Swiss Psychoanalytic Society and is the author of The Taming of Solitude: Separation Anxiety in Psychoanalysis. He is also Editor for Europe of the International Journal of Psycho-Analysis.

Manzano, Training Analyst of the Swiss Psychoanalytical Society
