Intended as a supplementary book for use in theory of psychotherapy/counselling courses, this book presents the main ideas and approaches of two major, modern theories of the person: object relations and the psychology of the self. The author provides an overview of such writers as W.R.D. Fairbairn, D.W. Winnicott, Otto Kernberg, Melanie Klein, Margaret S. Mahler, and Heinz Kohut, and illustrates their work with case studies, as well as summarizing, comparing and contrasting their work.

"I would say it's a good clear introduction to the various object relations and self psychology approaches...and a good starting point for students beginning their masters level counseling program."
"St. Clair has done a fine job of highlighting the evolution of psychoanalytic thought from classical Freudian to Object Relations and Self Psychology theories, and presenting complex material in a very palatable fashion."
Jodie Wigren has held teaching appointments at the Harvard Medical School and Boston University School of Medicine. She lectures on psychology at University of Massachusetts, Boston.
