Scientists are pitted against hermeneuticists, theorists against practitioners. Debates over narrative truth versus historical truth, clinical theory versus meta-psychology, and the role of the past in theory and therapy are reflected and refracted through a host of competing schools and approaches. . . . Lamm concludes that the three discourses of psychoanalysis do not compose a hierarchy, and are not engaged in an argumentative struggle for supremacy, but are a participant voice in conversation in which they may differ without disagreeing.""
