Donald Winnicott, the first pediatrician to become a child
psychoanalyst, was the most influential and important child
therapist in the field of child clinical psychiatry and psychology.
Having consulted with over 30,000 mothers and children as part of
his work in London city hospitals over 40 years, he had an almost
magical capacity to engage with children and to soothe and guide
parents through their most anxiety-ridden times. His optimistic
notions of the "good enough" mother has calmed generations of
parents; his depiction of security blankets ("transitional
objects") found full flower in the Charlie Brown character Linus;
his stressing of the importance of the capacity to play as the gold
standard of mental health had an enormous impact on preschool and
kindergarten education and his focus on the insidious impact of a
lack of authenticity or "false self" has led to countless papers on
the malevolent impact of narcissism at both the individual and
societal levels. Attachment, Play and Authenticity: Winnicott in a
Clinical Context, 2nd edition, attempts to take these contributions
and place them directly in the consulting room. Actual
child-therapist vignettes are paired with each chapter's
theoretical contributions. The reader is thus first transported to
Winnicott's powerfully alive depictions of what happens in healthy
and pathological mother-child interaction and then brought to see
how these depictions manifest themselves in child therapy. No other
work on Winnicott has applied this focus to the integration of
theory and practice.
