Wild Analysis

'Psychoanalytic treatment utilised the patient's capacity to love and desire as a means to an end. The stuff of romance became the stuff of cure. When Freud is writing about technique in psychoanalysis - and these papers [in Wild Analysis] represent his most significant contributions to the subject over three decades of work - it is important to remember that he is talking about what a couple, an analyst and a so-called patient, can do in a room together. For better or worse.' Adam Phillips

Reviews

It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of Dr Bowlby's work... In practical terms, his ideas have modified and continue to influence the rearing of children and the treatment of those who are disturbed. In theoretical terms, his contributions have given psychoanalysis a shot in the arm and a biological perspective which was sadly lacking.

—— Sunday Times

The publication of Attachment and Loss will prove a turning point in the history of psychoanalysis and in psychology generally.

—— Times Literary Supplement

There can be no question that Bowlby is making a major contribution to the understanding of deviant emotional development in childhood and after.

—— Child Psychology and Psychiatry

A clear and careful introduction to an involved subject

—— The Times
