Abstract
In this chapter we wish to build a common understanding of the scientific disciplines of engineering and psychoanalysis. Since they not only differ in vocabulary, but also in methodology and way of working it is not easy to build this bridge, and it will require at least two textbooks to do so. However, as this is not feasible, we have included short introductions to the main scientific fields, followed by discussions about their position in science and the relations between them.
