Description
Object Relations is a comprehensive introduction to the subject, placing relationships at the heart of what it means to be human. The theory, which originated in Britain as a development of Freudian thought, explores the human need for others and the ways in which this need shapes our understanding of ourselves and others. This book presents the work of the main theorists chronologically, allowing readers to see how the theory has evolved over time. A brief biography of the key figures behind the theory adds depth and context to the discussion, making it easier to understand their ideas and how they relate to one another. The book also addresses the practical application of Object Relations in counselling and psychotherapy, making it a valuable resource for those looking to explore this field.
