In the last two decades, object relations theory has crossed the
Atlantic and taken America by storm. The enthusiasm among American
clinicians for the British School, however, has led to a host of
problems related to the need to master a new terminology. The
difficulty in assimilating object relations theory is one more
example of the aphorism that America and England are two countries
separated by a common language. The Scharffs have taken a giant
step forward in assisting American therapists in their efforts to
master the language of object relations theory. With this primer
they have anticipated the reader's questions at every turn and have
answered them in remarkably clear and readable prose. Terms like
projective identification, holding, containment, and self are freed
from obscurity and made entirely understandable to even the novice
clinician. The authors then apply these concepts to a variety of
clinical settings. The Scharffs are equally at home when doing
individual, family, marital, group, or sex therapy. It is difficult
to imagine any other team of authors who could provide such a
comprehensive survey of the broad applications of object relations
theory. Students in all the mental health professions will find
this slim volume to be an extraordinarily useful introduction to
the field.
