Review

"There is much in this book that is wise, clinically perceptive, and thought-provoking. Bollas is clearly exquisitely sensitive to affective nuances as clues to early, preoedipal events and their developmental consequences....Bollas's book is a lucid, creative, balanced... exposition. It deserves a respectful audience." -- "The Psychoanalytic Quarterly"

"A book of great individuality. It offers an original theoretical view and clinical stance on issues which face any analyst or psychotherapist....All in all, a really valuable book." -- "Journal of the British Association of Psychotherapists"
