Winnicott is continually innovating, inventing, and proposing
unexpected solutions in his analytical work whenever he notices
that clinical experience doesn't stick to the theory. This approach
can make his work seem rather diffuse, with concepts that are
sometimes confusing, and needing to be clarified. Laura Dethiville
has taken on the task of going over and explaining the principal
rudiments of his theories (the transitional object, the self, false
self, the importance of environment, dissociation), and she reveals
how Winnicott showed himself to be a forerunner in the care of
symptomatic illness in our society: loss of identity, anorexia or
bulimia, delinquency, psychosomatic illness, and school disorders.
The success of this work is due to the fact that the author has
managed to avoid psychoanalytic jargon, and her comments, which are
obviously initially destined for psychoanalysts, are also
accessible for educators, child carers, paediatricians, and to all
those who in one way or another are interested in early childhood,
the constitution of the psyche, and the constitution of the
interpersonal link.And of course also to new parents, who will find
here the way to come into contact with their newborn baby.
