Thinking Space was set up to develop the capacity of staff and
trainees at the Tavistock Clinic to think about racism and other
forms of hatred toward difference in ourselves and others. Drawing
on Bion s (1962) distinction between knowing and knowing about, the
latter of which can be a defense against knowing a subject in a
deeper and emotionally real way, Thinking Space sought to promote
curiosity, exploration and learning about difference, by paying as
much attention as to how we learn (process) as to what we learn
(content).This book is a celebration of ten years of Thinking Space
at the Tavistock Clinic and a way of sharing the thinking,
experience and learning gained over these years. Thinking Space
functions, among other things, as a test-bed for ideas and many of
the papers included here began as presentations, and were
encouraged and developed by the experience. These papers do not
seek to provide a coherent theory or set of views. On the contrary
they are very diverse and decidedly so, as finding, expressing and
developing one s own personal idiom involves emotional truthfulness
and is an important part of getting to know oneself: both of which
are important prerequisites to getting to know the other."
This book promotes curiosity, exploration and learning about
difference by paying as much attention as to how we learn (process)
as to what we learn (content). It shares the thinking, experience
and learning of staff at the Tavistock Clinic, the premier
psychotherapy training institution in the NHS.
A Prince grown weary of rich attire, banquets, tournaments, and the
available princesses of his realm disguises himself as a ragged
minstrel. He travels about, learning the life of the lowly and
slaying a dragon or two, until he hears of the matchless beauty of
the Princess Saralinda, who is held captive by an evil Duke.

If one night you met Max Neal, a darkly handsome nineteen-year-old
who was turning tricks on the streets of Denver, and asked him what
had brought him to this life-he wouldn't have told you the truth.
And he wouldn't have told you about his love affair with power.
It was his hunger for power that precipitated the roundabout and
sacrilegious journey that led to his popular, charismatic
priesthood. But Max eventually learns that power cannot protect him
from his destiny. His life soon becomes inextricably entangled with
those of three very different priests and a suicidal young vagrant.
The secrets from the past could lead to dangerous consequences or
forbidden love-and could cost him everything he has worked to
become. Max deals with his life in the only way he has known up to
this point-he flees from the situation by assuming someone else's
identity.
Max continues to run from himself and his past until the day
that he finally comes to the realization that he doesn't even know
who he is anymore. Only by rediscovering himself will he be able to
look forward to the future, free from the anguish and torment of
his troubled past.
