4.9/5 (18176 ratings)

Description:A collection of the brilliant papers of John D. Sutherland, this volume gives the reader a unique education in the development of the self. Noted psychoanalyst, theoretician, and editor, J. D. Sutherland was best known as editor of the International Psychoanalytic Library and as the Director of the Tavistock Clinic, where he secured an environment for colleagues like Wilfred Bion, John Bowlby, and Eric Trist to create and distribute their valuable ideas. Now, for the first time, here is a collection of the works of John D. Sutherland. The papers are stunning in their clarity and in the scope of their vision. The book's three sections reflect Sutherland's major interests: object relations theory, its application to groups and institutions, and the development of the self. As he was fond of saying, object relations was "not so much a theory as a way of working" and he puts this idea into practice - from understanding his individual patients to developing a blueprint for community mental health. His papers on psychoanalytic theory reveal an erudite grasp of theory building. Those on application show his profound concern for the human condition. Deriving partly from his self-analysis after the age of 70, his later papers take him beyond object relations theory to a theory of the self. No psychoanalytic thinker has such a capacity for tolerating complexity. No one else has shown a similar ability to relate personal, individual depth psychology to social psychology. Collected together in this volume, John D. Sutherland's papers present a remarkable appreciation for the needs of the individual and the community. This book is both classic and contemporary. It will appeal to individual and grouppsychotherapists of any discipline, psychoanalysts, pastoral counselors, social workers, and community development workers. A masterpiece of care, concern, clinical acumen and vision, this book is a major contribution to human understanding.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
