Description

This collection brings together many of Winnicott’s most important pieces, including previously unpublished talks and several essays from books and journals now difficult to maintain. They range widely in topic – from “The Concept of a Healthy Individual” and “The Value of Depression” to “Delinquency as a Sign of Hope” – and elucidate some of Winnicott’s seminal ideas, such as the “transitional object” and the concept of a false self. All convey Winnicott’s vision of the ways in which the developing self interacts with the family and the larger society.
