abstract: It is pointed out that despite the promising light cast by biological psychiatry, the discipline remains totally in the dark about the aetiology of mental illness. It is also shown that recent statements by certain psychoanalysts are both factitious and illogical, hampering the progress of psychiatry that, today more than ever before, needs the cooperation of every school from the biological to the social, the psychodynamic and, above all the organic.
