Description

A scholarly adventure in post-Kleinian psychoanalytic thinking from which emerges a strong influence from the work of Bion.
‘His work grabbed me and would not let me go. To read him is to work along with him. It is not a style of writing but a profundity of thinking that insists that you take yourself seriously in order to read it’.
Gilead Nachmani from the Preface
