"This lucidly written account of seminal concepts from Bion, Stern and Winnicott, brings them vividly to life through integrating them into an interdisciplinary work that incorporates ideas from art, poetry, and philosophy and that makes it recommended reading for practitioners and students of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy." - Ann Casement, Licensed Psychoanalyst; Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute
"Wrights book is an invaluable contribution to the psychoanalytic literature. It considers the process of early motherinfant interaction, and its significance for psychoanalytic technique and for understanding artistic creation, in a clear, concise, heuristically invaluable fashion. The treatment he gives to the concept of projective identification and its technical implications is the most useful I have encountered. I strongly recommend this book to all psychoanalysts at all levels of experience...It deserves a place in every psychoanalysts library" Martin A.
