Playing and Reality by D W Winnicott

Winnicott is concerned with the springs of imaginative living and of cultural experience in every sense, with whatever determines an individual's capacity to live creatively and to find life worth living.
'Winnicott was the greatest British psychoanalyst who ever livedHe writes beautifully and simply about the problems of everyday life - and is the perfect thing to read if you want to understand yourself and other people better.' - Alain de Botton
Donald Winnicott began his medical career in the field of paediatrics, but gradually became more and more interested in the study of child psychology. During his career he was President of the British Psycho-Analytical Society. President of the Paediatric Section of the Royal Society of Medicine, and Chairman of the Medical Section of the British Psychological Society. He died shortly after Completing Playing and Reality, which has since become a classic work of reference.
