A General Theory of Love
THOMAS LEWIS, M.D., is an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of
California, San Francisco, School of Medicine, and a former associate director of the Affective
Disorders Program there. Dr. Lewis currently divides his time between writing, private
practice, and teaching at the UCSF medical school. He lives in Sausalito, California.
FARI AMINI, M.D., is a professor of psychiatry at the UCSF School of Medicine. Born and
raised in Iran, he graduated from medical school at UCSF and has served on the faculty
there for thirty-three years. He has also been on the faculty at the San Francisco
Psychoanalytic Institute since 1971, and served as its president in 1981. Dr. Amini is
married, has six children, and lives in Ross, California.
RICHARD LANNON, M.D., is an associate clinical professor of psychiatry at the UCSF
School of Medicine. In 1980, Dr. Lannon founded the Affective Disorders Program at UCSF,
a pioneering effort to integrate psychological concepts with the emerging biology of the
brain. Dr. Lannon is married and the father of two; he lives in Greenbrae, California.
Drs. Lewis, Amini, and Lannon have been working together since 1991. Each comes from a
different generation of psychiatrists: Dr. Amini from one in which psychoanalysis reigned
unchallenged, Dr. Lannon from the era that first saw the use of psychoactive medication in
treating emotional illness, and Dr. Lews from the recent generation of psychiatrists who
trained during the collision of psychodynamics with neuroscience. Dissatisfied with the
standard accounts of the mind, they combined their energies to construct alternative
paradigms. Their collaboration has generated academic papers and numerous presentations
for psychiatric professionals. Perhaps most important, their partnership has spawned the
most precious outcomes of collaboration: creativity, pleasure, and friendship.
