Obituary: John Forrester

It is with great regret that we learnt  of the death of Professor John Forrester, a distinguished Associate of our Society, on Tuesday 24th November.  He made an extensive contribution to the study of the history of psychoanalysis and was a great friend to our Society.

Professor Forrester’s close colleague, Simon Schaffer, has written a moving obituary, which is available on the University of Cambridge’s website:
