Reviews and Endorsements
Winnicott’s concept of “going-on-being” has been influential, but it has not received detailed and in-depth treatment – until now. In this excellent, wide ranging, and timely book, a diverse and talented group of psychoanalytic authors relate going-on-being to loss, mourning, trauma, social upheaval, and much else. This book is an essential resource for the clinician, those interested in psychoanalytic theory, and anyone else interested in the human condition.
