ABSTRACT
The chief inconsistency in our psychoanalytic basis is the lack of a broad biological definition of what that basis is. In the absence of such a definition, there is lacking on their own part a clear concept of their own basis. In this situation, a helter-skelter vernacular has come to take the place of sober formulations such as should stand for a scientifically accepted concept, and with this loose tendency in their basic conceptual usage, their psychoanalytic superstructure must necessarily be loose also. The basis of psychoanalysis is the individual's resistance, and an entire system of psychology has been built around this phenomenon of resistance. But just what a resistance is biologically, we have not yet enquired. It must be clear that there is some serious unconscious factor operative within people that they could all this while have been so taken in by their popular personal and social interpretations of love.
