Bion's central thesis in this volume is that for the study of
people, whether individually or in groups, a cardinal requisite is
accurate observation, accompanied by accurate appreciation and
formulation of the observations so made. The study represents a
further development of a theme introduced in the author's earlier
works, particularly in Elements of Psychoanalysis (1963) and
Transformations (1965). Bion's concern with the subject stems
directly from his psycho-analytic experience and reflects his
endeavor to overcome, in a scientific frame of reference, the
immense difficulty of observing, assessing, and communicating
non-sensuous experience. Here, he lays emphasis on he overriding
importance of attending to the realities of mental phenomena as
they manifest themselves in the individual or group under study. In
influences that interpose themselves between the observer and the
subject of his scrutiny giving rise to opacity, are examined,
together with ways of controlling them.
