description: A serious illness motivated the author to review his life and to gain insight into the forces that moved him along the road to a religious life and then into the field of psychoanalysis. His early life in an Orthodox yeshiva was an ambivalent one, but his emotional ties to Judaism, because of a loving and nurturing family, directed him into the rabbinate. World War II and five years of military service made him aware of a need to understand the complexity of the human mind.
