Reviews

The Creative Self is a novel contribution to the contemporary field of psychoanalysis and education. With narrative flair, wit and a wonderfully engaging style for examining the promise and perils of the designs of the creative self, Tamara Bibby invites readers to take Winnicott to school. Imagine then, how our earliest emotional ties to the mother's care have a second chance in pedagogical relationships. Bibby's insightful analysis gives us the spirited thinking that, after all, with the provisions of pedagogy as creative relations, and with dedication to the ins and outs of well being, education, too, can become good enough. Deborah Britzman, Distinguished Research Professor, York University Toronto, Canada.
