Evidence
According to the theory of the “moment of transition,” psychoanalysis would only be an episode-a sort of necessary interruption-in the long history of neurology, an episode that would mediate between the classical neurology that Freud the medical student would have learned and practiced it and the present state of the psychobiological science of neurons. — Catherine Malabou, The New Wounded, 437
