By examining changes in the patient's experience of 'inner space', this book records the development of the author's understanding of the patient's experience and its vicissitudes. The book goes on to tackle practical clinical issues and problems of technique - in particular, the role of transference interpretations. 176 pages.

Reviews and Endorsements

Clinical Lectures on Klein and Bion outlines the basic ideas in their thinking and shows in detail how these ideas can be used to tackle a clinical problem. The contributors correct some common misconceptions about Kleinian analysis, while demonstrating the continuity of their everyday work with seminal ideas of Klein and Bion. Originally given as a series of lectures intended to acquaint the general public with recent developments in psychoanalytic thinking and practice, the papers in this book cover the most fundamental ideas put forward by Klein and Bion; child analysis, Klein's use of the concepts of unconscious phantasy, projective identification, the paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions, Bion's study of psychotic thinking, his ideasof the relation between container and contained, and the usefulness of the ideas of reversible perspective in understanding `as if' personalities. In particular, this book provides an eminently readable and authoritative introduction to some of the most original and controversial concepts ever put forward in psychoanalysis.
