5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, January 2, 2012
This review is from: Maturational Processes and the Facilitating Environment: Studies in the Theory of Emotional Development (Maresfield library) (Paperback)
I bought this book as a suppliment to my graduate school readings, and it is fantastic. This book is a collection of Winnicott's papers on Object Relations. I only planned on reading a few chapters, but it was so good that I read the majority of it. Some of the chapters repeat information already described, but it is done so in a way that is not boring, and helped me better remember the concepts Winnicott discussed. I would highly recommend this book.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Maturational Processes and the Facilitating Environment: Studies in the Theory of Emotional Development (Maresfield library) (Paperback)
I am more than satisfied with the book. It gave me a great deal of the background and fundamental information about the early creation of neurotic and psychotic development of identity problems that begin in early infancy and childhood, and appear later in adult behaviors. It is very thorough, in my opinion, and it has much to offer for studying and understanding counseling. I am happy to have it in my library to review, and my copy is already 'tabbed' and 'underlined' for future referencing. The book is rather technical, so some background in psychology and counseling is helpful. (I value it more than any of the textbooks I have from graduate school.) It is written in "English" rather than "American" so some of the structure of the word spelling, word choice, and sentence structure can be distracting. Overall it is an excellent information source for me, and I am very happy I purchased it.

5.0 out of 5 stars How we form, February 18, 2009
This review is from: Maturational Processes and the Facilitating Environment: Studies in the Theory of Emotional Development (Maresfield library) (Paperback)
Why we are criminals saints, and sinners. Why we turn out bad and good, all in a few pages. Winnicott draws on his works as both a pediatrician and later a psychoanalyst to shed light on the processes of healthy maturational processes and the unhealthy maturational processes and environments which ultimately lead to mental illness.
