Abstract

This discussion of the articles that make up “The Writing Cure: The Effects of Clinical Writing on the Analyst and Analysis” raises issues about the wisdom of seeking a formula for case report writing, both because formulas do not help people write well and because the formula proposed predetermines what is important in an analysis and how to present that. The discussion also considers the process of certification, for which reports are written, and raises issues about how certification is conceptualized and instituted currently.
