Excerpt from The Technique of Psycho-Analysis I suppose that most medical men Who come to practise psycho-analysis have their interest first awakened reading psycho-analytical literature. They the practical side With an adequate or even extensive knowledge of theoretical considerations, but with no greater practical skill than can be acquired by studying the published accounts of analyses made by others. This is at best second - hand observation, and is far from possessing the same value as ex rience gained by the analysis of even one patient. 11 point of fact there is every whit as much a technique to be learned here as in, say, operative surgery, and mere reading holds about the same position in each specialty: it is indispensable but it cannot replace practical work. Yet to leave each beginner to work out a technique for himself would mean years of misplaced effort and wasted labour, whereas the hard-won experience of earlier workers in the same field should be his by right of scientific research.
