Summary

"In Mind Works Antonino Ferro uses clinical material such as detailed reports of sessions, together with clients' analytic histories, to develop Bion's original findings and illustrate complex concepts in the field of psychoanalytic technique. These concepts include: interpretive modalities, the end of analysis, psychosomatic pathologies, and narcissism."
