Winnicott by Adam Phillips
DW Winnicott's books, including "The Piggle", "Home Is Where We Start From" and "The Child", "Family and the Outside World" are still read, valued and argued with years after his death. This title attempts to get to grips with a writer, paediatrician and psychiatrist whose work with children and mothers continues to be relevant and fascinating.
The best living essayist writing in English

Phillips radiates infectious charm * Sunday Times *
Reading Phillips, you may be amused, vexed, dazzled But the one thing you will never be is bored * Observer *
He is perhaps single-handedly continuing the tradition of the world's best essayists
