Tavistock Press was established as a co-operative venture between
the Tavistock Institute and Routledge & Kegan Paul (RKP) in the
1950s to produce a series of major contributions across the social
sciences. This volume is part of a 2001 reissue of a selection of
those important works which have since gone out of print, or are
difficult to locate. Published by Routledge, 112 volumes in total
are being brought together under the name The International
Behavioural and Social Sciences Library: Classics from the
Tavistock Press. Reproduced here in facsimile, this volume was
originally published in 1957 and is available individually. The
collection is also available in a number of themed mini-sets of
between 5 and 13 volumes, or as a complete collection.
"The New Dictionary of Kleinian Thought provides a comprehensive
and wholly accessible exposition of Kleinian ideas. Offering a
thorough update of RD Hinshelwood's highly acclaimed original, this
book draws on the twenty years of Kleinian theory and practice
which have passed since its publication. The book first addresses
twelve major themes of Kleinian psychoanalytic thinking in
scholarly essays organised both historically and thematically.
Themes discussed include: - Unconscious Phantasy, Child Analysis -
the Paranoid Schizoid Position, the Oedipus Complex - Projective
Identification, Symbol Formation. Following this, entries are
listed alphabetically, allowing the reader to find out about a
particular theme - from Karl Abraham to Whole Object - and to delve
as lightly or as deeply as needed. As such this book will be
essential reading for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists as well as
all those with an interest in Kleinian thought"--Provided by
publisher.
Although both Kleinian psychoanalysts and their critics take it for
granted that there is a therapeutic technique distinctive to the
Kleinian approach, comparatively little has been written about what
it is. In Melanie Klein Today, Volume 2, Elizabeth Bott Spillius
brings together classic and new papers to make it possible to
understand the main elements of the Kleinian therapeutic technique.
In recent years there have been important refinements in this
technique, notably in regard to the balance to be struck in
interpreting destructiveness, the use of the so-called part-object
language, and the precise ways to understand and interpret
'acting-in' and the role of the past in the present. This
collection draws these developments together and makes clear why an
integral part of contemporary Kleinian theory and practice is
concerned with the careful scrutiny of the therapeutic process
itself. The volume includes detailed accounts of clinical work with
both adults and children and takes further the theoretical ideas
discussed in Melanie Klein Today, Volume 1. The papers and the
editorial commentary in this book together comprise the most
illuminating and coherent rationale for the Kleinian technique yet
published. The ideas will be of interest to members of many
disciplines and a final section includes papers on the application
of the Kleinian approach in other fields of work.
During the recent decades, social, political and academic
endeavours have been made to improve environmental quality and
reduce pollution. In particular, the ocean, sea and coastal areas
show varying degrees of impact from the multiple human activities
carried out in the terrestrial as well as in the aquatic
environment. Ecology is a science which studies the relationship
between organisms and the surrounding environment and in the modern
era, the marine world is getting increasing attention. For
centuries it has been the final reservoir of human garbage; later
it became an oil farm with a concomitant increase of coastal
population growth and unplanned growth of the fishing industry and
the increasing use of sea routes for cargo transport and
recreational uses (cruises). All this led to rising contamination
with negative effects on biota and even human health. It is then
imperative to know the current situation of the world's oceans:
that is the main purpose of this book, to document at a glance the
latest research in the field of ocean pollution.

Melanie Klein Today, Volume 1 is the first of two volumes of
collected essays devoted to developments in psychoanalysis based on
the work of Melanie Klein. The papers are arranged into four
groups: the analysis of psychotic patients, projective
identification, on thinking, and pathalogical organisation.
In Melanie Klein Today, Volume 2 , Elizabeth Bott Spillius brings together classic and new papers on the understanding of Kleinian therapeutic techniques. In recent years there have been important refinements in this technique, notably in regard to the balance to be struck in interpreting destructiveness, the use of the so-called part-object language, and the precise ways to understand and interpret `acting-in' and the role of the past in the present. This collection draws these developments together and makes clear why an integral part of contemporary Kleinian theory and practice is concerned with the carefuerapeutic process itself. The volume includes further detailed accounts of clinical work with both adults and children and takes further the theoretical ideas discussed in Melanie Klein Today, Volume 1 .
