Publisher Description:
This book focuses on one of D. W. Winnicott's most enduring and resonant formulations, the True and False Self. It is a salutary reminder of Winnicott's capacity as the acclaimed advocate of maternal "holding"--also for sharpness and for the sudden piercing stab of recognition.
