paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Softcover. Condition: Gut. 127 p. Browned copy with slight signs of use but clean. - - Wilfred Bion died in Oxford on November 8 1979 less than a week after he was diagnosed as suffering from myeloid leukaemia. The content of this book was approved by him in 1978. The two series of discussions form an illuminating contrast: The 1979 South American visit was Bion's third to Sao Paulo and fourth to Brazil; his method of presenting his subject was, therefore, fami-liar to those taking part. The visit to New York in 1977 was his first. It must be admitted that for those looking for cut-and-dried 'answers' Bion's method was inexplicable, frustrating and aggrava-ting. Here was a man, thoroughly conversant with his subject, exceptionally articulate and therefore well able to supply questioners with what they wanted to hear and he knew it. But he was steadfast in his respect for the truth and would not be persuaded against his better judgment to follow a course in which he could not respect himself. He believed that "La réponse est le malheur de la question"; both in his professional and private life problems stimulated in him thought and discussion-never answers. His replies-more correctly, counter-contributions were, in spite of their apparent irrelevance, an extension of the questions. His point of view is best illustrated in his own words: "I don't know the answers to these questions-I wouldn't tell you if I did. I think it is important to find out for yourselves" "I try to give you a chance to fill the gap left by me" "I don't think that my explanation matters. What I would draw attention to is the nature of the problem." "When I feel a pressure-I'd better get prepared in case you ask me some questions-I say, 'To hell with it, I'm not going to look up this stuff in Freud or anywhere else, or even in my past statement-I'll put up with it'. But of course I am asking you to put up with it too." Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 250.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. This selection of clinical seminars held by Wilfred Bion in Brasilia (1975) and Sao Paulo (1978) is the nearest we shall ever get to experiencing his application of his theories and views to consulting-room practice. It is also likely to be the only printed record of this area of his work. As those who underwent analysis with Bion will testify, nothing can approach the experience of the thing itself, but, failing that, these seminars may help to fill the gap now that his voice can only be heard through his published writings and lectures.…

Hardcover. Condition: Near fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near fine. First edition. All My Sins Remembered is the continuation of Wilfred Bion's autobiography, The Long Week-end. Although it is by no means a full account of his thirty years following the First World War. The Other Side of Genius gives us a glimpse of this remarkable man as his family knew him: those who met him only through his professional work will find here the same characteristic threads of humor, concern for truth, and flashes of insight that were the hallmark of his work in psycho-analysis. Minimal wear to the dust jacket with creasing and a small chip to the bottom corner of the front panel. Spine very slightly cocked as usual with this publishing house. First edition. 6" - 8¾". book.…
