Among the foes of Freudian psychoanalysis, few are bitterer than psychologists of rival schools. A savagely outhitting example is Andrew Salter, Manhattan behaviorist and hypnotist, splenetic disciple of Ivan Petrovich Pavlov.

Now older (37) but no mellower, Salter makes another attack in The Case Against Psychoanalysis (Holt...
This week, with the publication of a new book called They Went to College (Harcourt, Brace; $4), U.S. readers could find out.

The costumes are absolutely ludicrous...
