W. R. Bion’s Theories of Mind : A Contemporary Introduction, Paperback / softback Book

W. R. Bion’s Theories of Mind : A Contemporary Introduction Paperback / softback

Part of the Routledge Introductions to Contemporary Psychoanalysis series

Paperback / softback

Description

Annie Reiner’s introduction to Wilfred Bion’s theories of mind presents Bion’s intricate ideas in an accessible, original way without compromising their complexity. Reiner uses comparisons to painting, literature and philosophy, and detailed clinical examples, to provide an experience of Bion’s work that can be felt as well as thought.

The book explores many of Bion’s theoretical and clinical innovations, and examines the controversy surrounding his concept of O.

Reiner provides evidence of a continuity between Bion’s early ideas and his later, more esoteric work. W. R. Bion’s Theories of Mind will be essential reading for psychoanalysts and psychoanalytic candidates, as well as students of psychoanalytic and psychological history, and anyone looking for a readable introduction to Bion’s work.
