Otto Kernberg recently said, "I tried to bridge ego psychology and Klienian psychology. But when you try to build a bridge you get shot at by both sides!" Drs. Ryle and Kerr are still alive, but much of psychology is trying to pretend they do not exist outside of England. Here in America, CBT is trying to kill off anything psychodynamic or anything that suggests a whole person. Integration here is slow to come. Ryle took the deep understanding of personality from psychoanalysis and the pragmatism of short term cognitive psychology and developed a scientifically supported psychological treatment.
