A Clinical Application of Bion's Concepts - Analytic Function and the Function of the Analyst (Paperback)

In this magisterial work, Paulo Sandler continues to distinguish himself as a foremost scholar on the works of Bion. Already well known for his encyclopedic zeal, this present book continues Sandler's tireless search of Bion's contributions by this noteworthy clinical application of Bion's ideas.A major feature of Sandler's approach to studying Bion has been to contextualize the background of Bion's assumptions. In so doing, he investigates cultural and historical antecedents, especially including the philosophical and scientific points of view. From them Sandler selects Romanticism to explore futher: among the many characteristics of Romanticism is imagination, at best creative, but also idealization and hyperbole.Sandler also discusses Bion's way of being "scientific," one notable aspect of which is his distinctive use of theories, which he distinguishes from models.
