BION R. WILFRED

ΔΕΥΤΕΡΕΣ ΣΚΕΨΕΙΣ
Οι Δεύτερες Σκέψεις, μια συλλογή κλινικών ψυχαναλυτικών άρθρων που γράφτηκαν μεταξύ 1950 και 1962, αντλούν τον τίτλο τους από τον εκτενή κριτικό σχολιασμό που ο Bion προσέθεσε σ' αυτά τα κλινικά κείμενα τη χρονιά της δημοσίευσής τους, το 1967, και αντιπροσωπεύουν την εξέλιξη και την αλλαγή στις ιδέες του αλλαγή που είχε ήδη αποτυπωθεί στα τρία προηγούμενα βιβλία του και διατυπώνεται με μεγαλύτερη καθαρότητα στο παρόν έργο. (Από την παρουσίαση στο οπισθόφυλλο του βιβλίου)...

(P/B) ATTENTION AND INTERPRETATION
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 ...

(P/B) A MEMOIR OF THE FUTURE
A Memoir of the Future, Bion's unorthodox attempt to cast psychoanalytic speculation in fictional form, is composed of three semi-autobiographical novels: The Dream (1975), The Past Presented (1977), and The Dawn of Oblivion (1979). Presented here for the first time in one volume, they appear together with the Key to A Memoir of the Future, a glossary of terms and concepts compiled by Wilfred and Francesca Bion....

(P/B) SECOND THOUGHTS
Second Thoughts, a collection of papers composed between 1950 and 1962, 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.

TRANSFORMATIONS
Transformations continues the investigation of various aspects of psychoanalytic theory and practice which Bion commenced with Learning from Experience (1962) and pursued in Elements of Psychoanalysis (1963). In this third work published in 1965, Bion examines the ways in which the analyst's description of the original analytic experience, mediated by theory, necessarily transforms it in the course of effecting an interpretation.

(P/B) TAMING WILD THOUGHTS
Taming Wild Thoughts brings together previously unpublished works from two different periods of Bion's life which are linked, as Parthenope Bion Talamo says in her introduction, by the concept of classifying and conceptualizing thought. The first paper, "The Grid", dates from 1963 and is a discussion of great clarity about one of Bion's most widely-used conceptual tools; it predates his more discursive paper of the same title (published in Two Papers) by several years. As a teaching paper on this topic, this version of "The Grid" is withou...

(P/B) CLINICAL SEMINARS & OTHER WORKS (BION)
This selection of clinical seminars held by Wilfred Bion in Brasilia (1975) and Sao Paulo (1978) is the nearest we shall ever get to experiencing his application of his theories and views to consulting-room practice. It is also likely to be the only printed record of this area of his work. As those who underwent analysis with Bion will testify, nothing can approach the experience of the thing itself, but, failing that, these seminars may help to fill the gap now that his voice can only be heard through his published writings and lectures. ...

(P/B) All My Sins Remembered
All My Sins Remembered is the continuation of Wilfred Bion's autobiography, The Long Week-end. Although it is by no means a full account of his thirty years following the First World War - and he wrote no more - his memories of that period contrast vividly with the impression we gain of the following thirty years of his life through his letters. The Other Side of Genius gives us a glimpse of this remarkable man as his family knew him: those who met him only through his professional work will find here the same characteristic threads of hum...
