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 1955 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.

This book contains papers varying from the subject of
psychoanalytic theory and therapy to the psychoses and applied
psycho-analysis. It emphasizes the infant's constant struggle with
his internal-object-relations, internal war of mental objects, and
his drive towards 'reparation'.
Psychoanalysis is a science evidently fore-ordained to growth and
expansion, and among those who have extended the scope of both
theory and practice Melanie Klein holds a unique place.This book is
a survey of the developments in psychoanalytical knowledge
resulting from her work. Her main discoveries relate to the very
early phases of mental life. She recognized that the world of
unconscious feeling and impulse (which we call 'phantasy') is the
effective source of all human actions and reactions, modified
though they are when translated into actual external behaviour or
conscious thought. Although Freud first enunciated this truth,
which originates in his fundamental discovery of the unconscious
mind of man, he left many problems still unsolved. These have been
brought nearer to a solution through Melanie Klein's consistent
awareness of the significance of unconscious phantasy. Not only
students of psychoanalysis and workers in related medical fields
but also practising child-psychologists and the informed lay public
will find this book of absorbing interest.
About Children and Children-no-longer is the long awaited
collection of Paula Heimann's published and unpublished papers.
From the published work it includes the seminal paper 'On
Countertransference' (1950); 'Dynamics and Transference
Interpretations' (1956); 'Some Notes on Sublimation' (1959); and
'Notes on the Anal Stage' (1962). In addition, more recent works
are published here in English for the first time, describing the
author's particular integration of theory and technique. Paula
Heimann's ideas on an undifferentiated early phase of infant
development and its implications for analytic technique, along with
her unique knowledge of both Kleinian object relations and
classical theory and technique, make her work very relevant both to
present-day practice and the understanding of the historical
development of some central psychoanalytic ideas.
