Opis

The work of Michael Balint, a leading object-relations theorist, has been neglected since his death in 1970. A charismatic teacher in both pure and applied analysis, his work with general practitioners has become widely known. This work re-establishes his contributions to psychoanalysis related to the interdependence of mother and infant, the secondary nature of narcissism, the use of transference and countertransference and the analyst's technique.
