Wilfred R. Bion was one of the foremost psychoanalysts of his
generation, whose work has shaped and enriched psychoanalysis and
psychotherapy indelibly. Renowned for some highly original and
sometimes cryptic ideas, such as the alpha function and theory of
the grid, Learning from Experience is arguably his most important
and enduring work. Bion brings knowledge into the psychoanalytic
spotlight. What forces, he asks, interfere with knowledge?
Crucially, Bion doesn't mean knowing only facts, but the lifelong
process of understanding and coming to know things that is a
consequence of the development of knowledge. However, Learning From
Experience is perhaps best-known for its emphasis on the way
emotion and knowledge are interwoven. Bion links the emotional
capacity to develop and know to the capacity to tolerate
frustration: if we can hold ourselves in check whilst we endure
frustration, then we can come to know things. A remarkable and
brilliant work by a fascinating psychoanalyst and thinker, Learning
From Experience continues to inspire psychoanalysis and
psychotherapy. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new
Foreword by Robert Hinshelwood.
Bion's War Memoirs is perhaps the most exceptional piece of
autobiography yet written by a psychoanalyst. The first section of
the book is documentary, consisting of the entire text of the
diaries which the author wrote as a young man to record his
experiences on the Western Front in 1917-1919, and this volume also
includes the photographs and diagrams with which he illustrated his
recollections. The diaries are followed by two later essays, in
which he reflects upon his wartime experiences. The author has long
been renowned as one of the great psychoanalysts, his career
spanning much of the twentieth century and making him one of the
most influential names in the field. The author's war diary, which
he kept with him during combat, covered his years fighting in
France during the First World War. He was just twenty years old
when he began writing it. War Memoirs constitutes the final part of
the author's autobiography.
This book (hardcover) is part of the TREDITION CLASSICS. It
contains classical literature works from over two thousand years.
Most of these titles have been out of print and off the bookstore
shelves for decades. The book series is intended to preserve the
cultural legacy and to promote the timeless works of classical
literature. Readers of a TREDITION CLASSICS book support the
mission to save many of the amazing works of world literature from
oblivion. With this series, tredition intends to make thousands of
international literature classics available in printed format again
- worldwide.
Second Thoughts is a collection of papers on Schizophrenia, Linking
and Thinking, and is a commentary upon them in the light of later
work. Originally composed between 1950 and 1962, it derives its
title from the lengthy critical commentary which Bion attached to
these case histories in the year of publication, 1967, and
represents the evolutionary change of position marked in his three
previous books and brought to further refinement in the present
work.

Cogitations, the last of the posthumous publications, is a
collection of occasional writings representing Bion's attempts to
clarify and evaluate both his own ideas and those of others by
casting them in written form and frequently addressing them to an
imaginary audience. Covering a period between February 1958 and
April 1979, Cogitations
