It is characteristic of some forms of scientific genius to alter
not just what we see in the world, but how we see it - not just the
view, but the lens. One thinks of Freud's discovery of the
transference, or of Melanie Klein's attention to the play of
children. Wilfred Bion's study of groups and group processes also
has this quality. More than the content of what he saw and captured
in the concepts of two modes of mental functioning in groups and in
the differentiation of the basic assumptions, it was the way he saw
or, more broadly, the way he sensed the emotional life of the
individual in the group, and in the first instance his own, that
opened up a quite new territory for exploration. Those of us whose
practice takes place primarily in the institutional or social
domain can find in his more psychoanalytic work seeds of new
thought extending beyond the consulting room.Going "beyond the
confines" might perhaps more generally stand as a metaphor for
Bion's enterprise.
