Personality disorder can be conceived as the result of a disruption
on the development of self. This thoroughly updated edition of The
Metaphor of Play examines how those who have suffered such
disruption can be treated by understanding their sense of self and
the fragility of their sense of existence. Based on the
Conversational Model, this book demonstrates that the play of a
pre-school child, and a mental activity similar to it in the adult,
is necessary to the growth of a healthy self. The three sections of
the book - Development, Disruption and Amplification and
Integration - introduce such concepts as the exceptional field,
paradoxical restoration, reversal, value and fit, and coupling,
amplification and representation. This highly readable and lucid
presentation of the role of play in the development of self will be
of interest not only to therapists but also to those interested in
the larger issues of mind and consciousness.
