In his nearly 500 papers and eight books, Leo Rangell has made major contributions to psychoanalytic theory for more than half a century. He has twice been elected President of both the American and International Psychoanalytical Associations, and is the only person besides Ernest Jones, Heinz Hartmann, and Anna Freud to be named Honorary President of the International Psychoanalytical Association.

In Music in the Head, Dr. Rangell explores auditory hallucinations from both the personal and professional perspective. His hallucinations started in 1995 following surgery, and he has lived with them every day since then. He combines his professional training and his personal insight in this scientifically based, yet conversational book, making these intriguing phenomena approachable for any reader.
