"DWW is alive and well and living in the Child Psychotherapy training of the BAP. In this exciting and beautifully written book, graduates, supervisors, teachers and friends of this Independent training reflect on aspects of DWW's genius and demonstrate its persisting relevance for understanding children." - Juliet Hopkins PhD, Tavistock Clinic, London, UK.
"Almost all of the "Winnicottian themes" are touched upon, sometimes with special originality, never losing sight of the clinical dimension. At each reading, one discovers nuances and subtle observations, just as in reading Winnicott. On finishing this book I felt highly rewarded and recommend it with conviction, hoping to see it translated soon in other languages, especially Italian." - Professor Vincenzo Bonaminio, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy.
"This unique book collects experiences from clinicians working in different settings with Winnicott's work as a shared ground. Rich examples from consulting rooms and from work in different sectors of society makes it a significant contribution to the field of child and adolescent psychotherapy. Winnicott's Children invites the reader to broaden his/her thinking." - Gunnar Carlberg PhD, Erica Foundation, Stockholm, Sweden.
"This is an excellent book and also a timely one - or one might also say 'about time'. ... I would envisage people approaching this book with their own clinical questions to see if they can find a way forward by looking at how others have worked and what has worked for them." - Judith Edwards, Journal of Child Psychotherapy, 39:3.
