| Description: | Select Guide Rating This book represents a shift especially in the area of eating disorders, from valuing possessions to valuing a different aspect in one's quality of life. It explores the problems which arise in forming and sustaining intimate relationships. Klein’s model of projective and introjective processes and Bion’s theory of the relationship between container and contained have become increasingly significant in much clinical work. in a highly imaginative development of these models of thought, the distinguished clinician gianna williams, one of the leading figures in the field, elucidates the psychodynamics of these processes in the context of impairment of dependent relationships and of eating disorders in both men and women. This is a timely and brilliant account of an area of psychopathology that is rapidly growing in significance. |
