Sommario/riassunto

Bion's study of groups and group processes has the same quality as Freud's discovery of transference or Klein's work in child analysis. The way he saw the emotional life of the individual in the group, notably his own, opened up new territory for exploration, a going ""beyond the confines"", and this collection seeks to record a debt to that new exploration. 112 pages.
