"The Primal Scream" by Dr. Arthur Janov was an influential and controversial book. Twenty years ago I recorded my only interview with Dr. Janov to discuss his book "The Biology of Love." We were joined on the program that day by his wife France Janov. During the interview we had a discussion about his "primal scream therapy," how the idea for it came about, and how it is supposed to work.
Dr. Janov died in 2017.
