Winnicott s thinking continues to grow in importance in psychoanalysis today.In this book, between two contextualizing and helpful baby observation pieces (the first looking in detail at a baby observation and the experience of engaging in it; the second a summarizing and reflective report of the Baby Observation) are chapters that treat Winnicott s thinking and the comparison of the original baby with the one who appears in the course of an adult therapy. These are explained first by situating Winnicott s thinking historically and then by taking a detailed look at each of his three stages of dependence absolute dependence, relative dependence and going towards independence in both the developmental and clinical situations.
