Reviews and Endorsements

'Winnicott and Lacan are arguably two of the most important psychoanalyst after Freud. Who would have thought that their methods and techniques could converge in clinical practice? I wondered how it could work. This book shows how it can be done and makes a strong case for the advantages of combining the contributions of these two psychoanalytic innovators. These essays, rich in clinical material, will intrigue all who are interested in the talking cure. This unique book will also be a valuable teaching tool. Between Winnicott and Lacan brings fresh perspective for rethinking psychoanalytic theory and practice.'
