Description
The work of Michael Balint, a leading oject-relations theorist, has been neglected since his death in 1970. His theories on the interdependence of mother and infant, the secondary nature of narcissism, the use of the countertransference in pure and applied analysis, and the use of the analyst's technique in the creation of the analytic situation have been incorporated into everyday analysis without their source being remembered or even known. A charismatic teacher in both pure and applied analysis, his work with general practitioners has become widely known. This book re-establishes his major contribution to psychoanalysis.
