Reviews

As we attempt to sort out the enduring features of his legacy of developmental theories and clinical practices, a reconsideration of the value and limitations of his work remains an important task for psychoanalysis. The readings in Donald Winnicott Today provide many useful starting points for this endeavor and offer rich matters for reflection that will be studied with interest by practitioners attempting to build upon Winnicott's profound understanding of human beings. - Lewis Kirshner, MD, Psychoanalytic Psychology

It seems timely as a retrospective overview and as a consideration of influences exerted and assimilations prompted by his ideas in succeeding generations. The book is especially strong on Winnicott’s developing concept of the environment and on his late concept of the use of an object. For those who seek clarity and depth on these issues, this is a good place to look."" Ralph H. Beaumont for The Psychoanalytic Quarterly, 2014"
