Essential Papers on Object Loss

Compiled for psychoanalysts, psychotherapists and students of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy, this collection contains contributions to the understanding of the effects of object loss on adults and children. Departing from the tendency of works to leave the reader alienated from the essential clinical experience, the editor has assembled clinical, as well as descriptive and theoretical papers, each of which is introduced with a brief summary of its importance to the field of study.
