Product Description

Product Description
This book helps us to read Winnicott in all of his richness. Each of his themes is organized into a lexicon of words and phrases which represent the major theories in his work.

From the Publisher
An Invaluable Resource about the Work of Winnicott
One might say that there is no such thing as a book or a reader in isolation: each person will find different things in this volume, depending on what he or she brings to it. For the student who has not yet encountered Winnicott, this is a signpost to the riches that are waiting to be discovered; for the practitioner, it will be a source of new insights to be used in clinical practice; and for the scholar, it will be an invaluable resource for bibliographic and thematic data on Winnicott's work. Jonathan Pedder, from his Foreword

Donald Winnicott was a unique figure who spanned both paediatrics and psychoanalysis, bringing a unique clarity of thought and deep humanity to all of his work. He is one of the most influential British figures to have emerged in these fields this century, and his work continues to win converts across the world. The Language of Winnicott is the first comprehensive and reliable guide to his unique use of words such as Aggression, Mother and Play. It charts the way in which his thought matured throughout his forty-year career, and gives extensive quotations from his original works. It also contains Harry Karnac's comprehensive bibliography of Winnicott's work, which will be invaluable to any student.

Jan Abram is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice in London and Director of the Squiggle Foundation. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Language of Winnicott, 13 Jun 2009
By D. Belcher - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This dictionary is a valuable aid to engaging with the key ideas of a Winnicotian approach. He contributed significantly to the intelectual history of psychoanalysis.
It spans his key concepts and developing approach to the psychonalytical tradition. I found it helpfull in unpacking his main ideas in an area where people in the psychoanalytical tradition use different words to explain the same or almost the same concept. It is an angeging read that introduces Winnicott's comprehensive works. It's usefulness is in its being not only a useful dictionary to Winnciott but a guide to his thinking. It is a valuable resource for any undergraduate / post graduate student and therapist.
