Editors' Introduction

In this, the sixth issue of Neuro-Psychoanalysis, we

publish a range of articles dealing with scientific, philosophical, and historical topics at the interface of neuroscience and psychoanalysis. The lead articles focus
on developmental questions of fundamental importance to our field. As usual, readers are strongly encouraged to submit commentaries on these articles,
via our web site: www.neuro-psa.com. Selected commentaries will be published in the Ongoing Discussion
section of future issues of the journal.
Also in this issue is the second installment of
Calvin Kai-ching Yu's series of three articles on the
neuroanatomical correlates of dreaming. This is followed by an unusually interesting contribution on the
problem of consciousness by Philip Clapson. Invited
commentaries on Clapson's target article will appear
in a subsequent issue of the journal. Readers are again
invited to participate in the ongoing discussion.

To commemorate the centenary of the publication

of Freud's The Psychopathology of Everyday Life,
Riccardo Steiner analyzes the scientific and cultural
context of this celebrated book, which vividly illustrates the continuity between some of Freud's basic
concepts and the neuroscience of his time.
We would like to apologize to our readers for
the lateness of the publication of this issue. We have
experienced a number of teething problems, which we
are in the process of rectifying, and we expect the
journal to appear more punctually from late 2002 onward. We apologize also to our authors for the large
number of high quality papers we have been unable to
accommodate, and for the increasing delays between
acceptance and publication. This should be rectified
from 2004 onward, by which time we hope to be able
to publish four issues per year.
