Growth and Turbulence in the Container/Contained

Bion's Continuing Legacy

Herausgeber: Levine, Howard B.; Brown, Lawrence J.

Beschreibung

Wilfred Bion remains the most cited author in psychoanalytic literature after Sigmund Freud. His formulation of alpha function, waking dream thoughts, his theory of thinking and of the container/contained have proven seminal for the elaboration of psychoanalytic theory and practice, as well as the exploration of psychic functioning and the primordial mind. Growth and Turbulence in the Container/Contained¿ is¿based on papers presented at the 2009 International Bion Conference held in Boston, Massachusetts. It represents the state of the art thinking of an outstanding international group of Bion scholars and experts. This book includes the most current trends in Bion scholarship, covering topics that range from the historical/biographical, to the clinical, the theoretical, the developmental, to the cultural and aesthetic.¿ Proving a vital¿stimulus to further creative explorations in the field,¿Growth and Turbulence in the Container/Contained¿will be of particular interest to psychoanalytic practitioners, graduate psychoanalysts, analytic candidates, psychoanalytic therapists, advanced therapy trainees,and scholars of all schools.¿
