PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Adam Phillips is a practising psychoanalyst, formerly Principal Child Psychotherapist at Charing Cross Hospital, London. He is General Editor of the Penguin Modern Classics Freud translations and the author of numerous works of psychoanalysis and literary criticism, including most recently On Wanting to Change Attention Seeking and Unforbidden Pleasures.
“The book’s call and response format, the supple back and forth movement between Phillips and his audience … serves as an ideal introduction to a by now forbiddingly expansive and continually expanding body of work … succeeds in reaching into the heart of his thinking to give us its fundamental questions and stakes, especially when it comes to our clinical practice: Why do we bother with psychoanalysis? How does it serve the aim of ensuring life is worth the effort?” -- – British Journal of Psychotherapy “As much a philosophy of life as a book about psychoanalysis… the lay person can pick up this book and grasp its content—there’s no banging your head against technical jargon or impenetrable analytic language. It’s a short book, which you can read in an afternoon, and be all the better for it… As you leaf through the pages, you are touched by someone who has been in touch with life in many forms… I could say much more, but I’ll let the magic of the book surprise you too.” -- Stillpoint Magazine
