Reviews and Endorsements

'Ronald Britton's papers over the past fifteen years or so have been beacons of clarity and creativity. He has reformulated Kleinian thinking (as far as I am concerned) in the same paradigm shift way that Bion did forty years ago. I have learnt more from his writings than any other member of our Society writing today.'
- Peter Fonagy, Professor of Psychoanalysis, University College, London

'When Britton applies psychoanalysis to literature or uses literature to illustrate psychoanalytic concepts, both fields benefit from the encounter...Britton achieves a depth and clarity in the application of psychoanalytic ideas to the realm of poetry and biography that is rarely equaled.'
- Howard Levine, Journal of the American Psychoanalytic Association
