'THIS BOOK DOES MORE THAN OFFER A REMARKABLE SURVEY OF WINNICOTT'S INNOVATIVE AND IMAGINATIVE CONCEPTIONS. THE CONTRIBUTORS THEMSELVES ARE INVENTIVE THINKERS AND WRITERS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT, AND BRING TO THE READER ENRICHED INSIGHT INTO THE INCOMPARABLE HERITAGE THAT WINNICOTT HAS GIFTED TO THE PSYCHOANALYTIC WORLD. IN ADDITION TO THIS RICHNESS THERE EMERGES A VIVID PORTRAIT OF THE MAN WHO WAS WINNICOTT WITH HIS WHIMSICAL WAYS, QUALITIES AND FRAILTIES, THAT WILL DELIGHT ALL THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO MARVEL AT HIS OUTSTANDING CREATIVITY.' Joyce McDougall 'THIS RICHNESS OF THIS COLLECTION SHOWS THE VARIETY AND QUALITY OF RESPONSE THAT WINNICOTT'S WORK CAN INSPIRE. THESE PAPERS DEEPEN OUR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT HE WROTE, AND INDICATE AT THE SAME TIME HOW GENERATIVE HIS IDEAS CONTINUE TO BE.' Michael Parsons
