...Work of Sigmund Freud (TIME, Oct. 19, 1953 et seq.) gave the world its best glimpse so far at what went on behind the brooding brow of the father of psychoanalysis. But Welsh-born Ernest Jones was also the No. 1 psychoanalyst of the English-speaking world. In Free Associations (Basic Books; $5), his unfinished autobiography published last week, Jones offers the world a posthumous look into his own lively mind...
...that, Jones's loyalty to Freud remained so deep that it prevented completion of his own autobiography. He started Free Associations in 1944, then laid it aside to spend most of the next decade turning out his definitive three-volume biography of the master. When he returned to the story of his own life, there was time to carry it only through World War I before liver cancer killed him. Ironically, despite all the evidence of a lifetime's discipleship, Jones to the last wrote scathingly of disciples, insisting: "I have always been much too independent to play...
...Said Cleveland Banker Robert Mazanek: "The steelworkers' way of life today includes a strike every couple of years, and they save for it."

Best bet is that Bergman intends it as a kind of spiritual autobiography, identifies himself both with the masked magician and the drunken actor, who dies with his battered top hat on, raving: "I always longed for a knife to free me ... Then what we call the spirit would rise up from the meaningless carcass." Cinemagician Bergman seems to see both men as despairing artists whose creative imaginations doom them to social obloquy and the distrust and disdain of hardheaded authority. What scant optimism there is in this fatalistic philosophy lies...
...watched from the shore as the freighter that might have taken them to safety was sunk at her mooring by a Japanese plane. Soon after, they were taken prisoner and for two years endured a hell that many failed to survive. Mydans' account of those years is remarkably free of rancor: he has compassion for his abused campmates, admiration for their capacity to endure.. And when, after an exchange of prisoners, he returned with the U.S. troops who dashed into Manila to rescue his P.W. friends, he realized afresh how moving was man's capacity for hope...
