Böcker av Joan Symington

A Festschrift for Sidney Klein, the eminent British psychoanalyst. In this volume a wide range of clinicians reflect on the debt they owe to his work, and in particular on the idea of analysis as a means for understanding and transforming psychic pain.

This little book is written for patients. It is a challenge to action. Do not be satisfied with a malingering treatment. Gird your loins and challenge your psychotherapist and be prepared to go to a new one. It is worth the trouble to find the right person. Psychotherapy is a long and expensive process so ensure that youy make it effective.

Psychoanalysis seen through the eyes is a radical departure from all conceptualizations which preceded him. The Symingtons explain Bion's concepts in relation to clinical practice; each chapter looking in depth at a particular theme.
